Eggy
It is the season for things eggy and chickeny.
Here in the retro window of a traditional butcher on 9th Avenue.
the same. But what on earth is "Milk Bank Boost"?
The ladybug eggs are a new one on me. (9th Avenue too).
On 8th Avenue the plaid pants and the plastic grass and the much-too-white eggs are awful.
The chickens have a certain charm.

23rd Street
Very early in the morning the sun hits a building on the south side
of the street and a plane looks like a comet heading earthwards.
High up, where the new building is, it is morning. Down below darkness still lingers.
Somehow, the shape of the new building is echoed in the garbage truck.
The black railing is the High Line soon-to-be park extension.
All the construction materials are cleverly reflected in the apartment building.
So many buildings to take pictures of. I'm longing for the plants to arrive.

The End of February
The New york City Public Schools were closed today much to the delight of the local children.
Time to go to the park and make snowballs.
In the afternoon a slight thaw set in.
A twisted willow tree freighted with fluffy snow on 21st Street.

Looking Towards the Hudson at Night
Blogger seems to have altered the way you compose things --and , needles to say, I'm confused.
The light is always fascinating when it's almost dark,
or dark at street level, but the day remains suspended in the sky.
I'm not quite sure what is behind the colored windows.
The cage thing on the left is a golf range down by Chelsea Piers.
An advertisement for a vast U-Haul storage place. Storage is a huge business here in Manhattan since people both move a lot and also acquire all sorts of things that would clutter their often small apartments. Space is the thing people long for here more than anything else.
Lots of little vans you can hire to haul all your either useful or useless stuff around the place........

Squares and Windows
Brilliant crisp morning light.
More of the same.
An interior window between the bar and the dining room at The Half King on 23rd Street.
The bar is painted the most wonderful terra cotta pink.

Thursday on 22nd Street

Bars on a window. 22nd Street
A poster hiding behind a metal fence.
Somehow the posters were all put up wobbly and not flattened out.
For some reason, I liked the color of the reflections in the car.Saturday, January 30, 2010
Excellent Dumpling
For the best scallion pancakes go to Excellent Dumpling
on Lafayette Street near Canal.
Totally no frills. You are in and out in about 15 minutes.
Wonderful.
