Shadow Shot Sunday/24th Street

See Hey Harriet for other participants.

In order for construction debris not to fall on your head, they now put up swathes of this orange netting.
It looks rather glamorous in the sunlight.
This particular bit is outside Whole Foods on the corner of 7th Avenue and 24th Street.
Whole Foods is an excellent shop, but it is not cheap. Sometimes referred to as Whole Paycheck. Haha.



Orange is not my favorite color, but I'll have to get used to it since some shops have Halloween stuff in already, and I saw orange squash in the fields at the other end of Long Island.



Away from the orange the street is silvery gray.
They were cleaning the windows of the high school in anticipation of school opening on Tuesday.



A typical late summer scene.
How we savor these last days of summer.

Why We Go To The Beach

These somewhat Soviet-Ear looking apartments in Penn South near where we live are actually well-managed and surrounded by trees.
But even so.........



In summer the delights of the urban landscape are few.



The new "MUNIMETER" which is in use instead of individual meters. I have not yet had to work out how they work - or don't work - since we do not own a car.
We rent one when we have to go out to the Island.



This little beach house is where the life guards shower and generally hang out when not on duty.



I think I will move in for the next month.



Looks like a cool place to me.
And the view is terrific.
