in response to: Notes from 9/11/01 by GGP

in response to: Grubbin\' by Nairi

in response to: GGP\'s Voo-Voo Building by Peter

GGP: the whole area is bleak...strangely underpopulated and netherworldish. the kind of liminal zone that's harder and harder to come by our neck of the woods these days. By the way, in your shot, Peter, on......

in response to: GGP\'s Voo-Voo Building by Peter

in response to: the hutch condos by jeeff

GGP: why did you not develop them, Peter? I ask because my internal reaction to taking pictures on that day was very ambivalent. I felt ashamed, somehow, for shooting pictures while this unbelievable thing was happening.......

in response to: Samuel Underberg Building by GGP

Peter: piranha erem: yes, most of the people in the areas surrounding this spot are against it... the plan involves exercising ##eminent domain## to force many people form their existing homes, which will allegedly be assimilated......

in response to: Atlantic Yards by Peter

GGP: oh boy! you saw my little haiku @ beast, eh? that makes me laugh--it was awhile ago. how many times have we passed on the streets of our neighborhood (& in cars on the west......

in response to: West Side Highway by GGP

Peter: woah! we were driving up to tarrytown yesterday and saw that same thing, all flashing and freaking out... only had the {lomo} handy, though, and couldnt get to the digital in time to snap a......

in response to: West Side Highway by GGP

Peter: ggp: i agree. you think after the crashed car got tagged up theyd rethink its location. such a busy intersection, too! wonder if the graf will make it into any evidence photos? now that would......

in response to: Pining Away by GGP

GGP: yep, that is the self-same car. I hadn't seen your post. How long are they going to leave the evidence just laying around in front of the police station? doesn't look too...professional....

in response to: Pining Away by GGP

GGP: "look at that leg": an invocation. the cones look like koi goldfish getting a jump on their next incarnation as plastic junk (aren't we all headed this way these days?). anyway, for some reason (the......

in response to: into the deep by elaine

GGP: neat series. I like the ones under the Jane Jetson--one of the wittier ad campaigns of late. And what's w/ the guy holding the paper over his face--is he hiding from your camera? I also......

in response to: Countless Faces Commuting by Peter

GGP: Joey: yes, a wool jacket. it's always kind of chilly here...except when it's hot. The mountains. And constantly changing weather. and yes, oh, My Side of the Mountain...I loved that book when I was kid.......

in response to: A Walk & A Visit by GGP

GGP: Yes, the sticker looked very old, dirty, and worn. Suggesting the possibility that this hand-rendered format preceeded the more "formal" printing style of the other parakeet images. Playing archeologist here and could well be wrong......

in response to: Pet Bird Nestlings by GGP

GGP: Yikes. Learning the ropes here. Anyways, liked your WV and wanted to reciprocate with one. That first image was copied in error....
