Previous Day :: Next Day

Catherine Penfold-Waxman: Kato, (Mum, actually) it's funny 'cos these carts do look like they were taped together each morning. It's very thin, pressed aluminium and plastic. I always wonder why the guy inside doesn’t come crashing out the bottom. Some of the more sophisticated carts have cooking facilities where you can get...

Kon: ...that is seriously messed up. i understand it offers maximum window exposure to patients, but still...the architects that designed that could have made it going counter-clockwise, at the least. Anyways, awesome find.

ian: Of course this photo is real. I don't even like photoshop. There are some extremely ghetto, broken up old parking lots -- basically just stripes laid on top of demolished building foundations. The east side of the CBD isn't exactly beautiful or modern. And, yeah, he fell on his ass, rolling around...

in response to PATH Train, Newark Bound

Catherine Penfold-Waxman: If only Nelson was still alive, you'd have all four dogs on the truck. Tell Coco if she can get to the Mexico border, I can sneak her across.

in response to Mack Doggies

Kato: Is Blue Peter involved here? Looks like egg boxes and the fabulous sticky backed plastic, with no sharp scissors in evidence.

in response to Coffee Cart

Catherine Penfold-Waxman: This guy is great, very personable. Whenever I catch his eye, I give him a wave. I don't often pick up coffee on the way to work as I tend to drop boiling liquids in my lap, especially if I have an audience. Also, I drink the dreaded decaf, and...

in response to Coffee Cart

aj: this is not funny

in response to Coffee Cart

Kato: Mulah is traumatised, she thinks one of the dogs looks like her. Coco is puzzled about the rubbish, she's been learning American (still looking for her bus ticket) and thought it was trash or garbage. Kato wants to drive it.

in response to Mack Doggies

Catherine Penfold-Waxman: It's a great camera. I carry it (almost) everywhere.

Jamie: haa but barry will never achieve the unique perspective of my photos. unless he breaks into flat 2 that is. i don't condone this. i like also how in barry's photos the white building with the blue doors is gone. neatly sliced from it's adjoining stone built warehouse to make...

Peter: hahaha nice entry! thanks cat! i love the cherried out garbage rigs like these. some of em take customization to a while new level (or a whole new level of tackiness as it were), especially the ones that have names like "Big Bertha" or "R.I.P. Papi" or something similar airbrushed across...

in response to The London Police

Jamie: don't worry about it. it's normal. it's designed that way to scale photos down to fit into the columns, so when you upload something tiny such as this it stretches it instead. No biggie.

in response to Citynoise Button

groovehouse: yeah, it's 80x15 on this page, but when it was displayed on the citynoise home page it was HUGE!

in response to Citynoise Button

Peter: it looks 80x15 to me :) thanks man!!

in response to Mack Doggies

groovehouse: OH NO!! the button's not supposed to be that big! Hmmm... looks like the coding enlarges images on the home page. Button should be small, like 80 x 15 pixels.

in response to Citynoise Button

Catherine Penfold-Waxman: The first picture is exquisite. The man's body echoes the dancer perfectly. Such street elegance. And the coffee-drinking kilt-wearer is a treat, too. Hool, I want to be your aprentice.

Alex: I was born and raised in HP. I lived there for 27 years, around Spaulding. The area is not the same anymore, that is obvious. Everything changes with time, that's another obvious. People just have to accept change. No matter how much People want it...

Jamie: cross street 2002 style

in response to Back Street

Jamie: nice shots. they contrast well with my photos of the same part of lisnaskea taken back in 2002. Good to see the redevelopment that was always talked about. and i'd totally forgotten about the robot building at the end of the street!

in response to Back Street

wuzzy: I did years of gymnastics as a child and teenager and I've missed it ever since I gave up. My body just won't let me do it anymore. I went out to do parkour the other night along Brighton (UK) beachfront and it was amazing. It's the only activity i've...

jack: fergusons bakery is two hundred years old and the horse and cart would leave the bakery to deliver the breads to customers. so there it is the new and the old. what a story the bricks can tell.

in response to Back Street

jack: a slim girl in dance and a fat guy drinks a diet soda, a shadow as skinny as he and a phone in disorder. pushing a child past photos of ghosts, a man in a dress with a coffee to toast, and a musseled dog on a leash cant stand the pink store, 'cause prayers...
