fall came late this year and i am undecided

the amount of time i spended looking at the ground and the sky i must miss a lot in the middle

i mean, you've really GOT to love new york

Professor Edwardo Alvarado as seen on November 14, 2005 about 5:30pm, Union Square Station.

Best Subway Performer

Professor Edwardo Alvarado

Ever since that guy who played Monk and Miles on the melodian stopped riding the F train, there's been a hole in the heart of the subway that even a saw lady, a karaoke Al Green and countless break-dancing troupes couldn't fill.

Enter Professor Edwardo Alvarado. The sight is mesmerizing: The Professor, with his greased-back hair, swoons trance-like, like a character from a Lynch film, playing Italian melodies on the keyboard while a crowd of battery-operated dolls shakes a demonic hula dance. It will haunt your dreams until you die.

These mannequins have some classy shoes
and rather un-shapely torsos.

unexpected diversion

over the grassy knoll

jersey sunset

i was going to post these all together but...

the irish hunger memorial.

ran into it because i went around the block looking for the entrance to a building. a peaceful detour, as only happens with a deviation from routine.

the whole park smelled like freshly mowed grass

my favorite public art

full moon

fine day
