File under Batty and Bizarre/ ABC Wednesday


This is the second letter of Mrs. Nesbitt's ABC Wednesdays.
This young lady with a notice on her forehead lives on West Broadway heading south from Spring Street.



This poor dead bicycle lives just north of Houston Street. It has been decorated beautifully and almost rises to the level of art.



Just across the street from the bicycle is an Egyptian cafe which was closed early on Sunday morning.
When I took the next two photos, I didn't realise how much reflection was going to appear in them.
Hm.........very mysterious and spooky indeed.



Gods of ancient Egypt and a tower block of not very interesting apartments - something to do with housing for NYU I think.



Artifacts and reflections in a tobacco shop window on West Broadway.



A metal gate to a townhouse in Chelsea.
This image is from the silent movie they made of H.G. Wells' First Man on the Moon. Someone - not sure who - shot a bolt in to eye of ( I think) the man in the moon.
Obviously, not a useful or comforable thing to do
It looks a bit scary anyway, and, no doubt, led to trouble.



Reflections in a hot dog truck parked by South Street Seaport on Sunday morning.
Yes, we had a most energetic bike ride!



Eventually we sat and looked across the East River at Brooklyn.
