Thanks for all the life lessons, Mom.

Happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there who've taught us things that make us better (especially my own)!

The Space Between

This is what happens when I stick my camera lens into small spaces between various fences around my neighborhood.

You know what else happens? Cops sitting in cars nearby also stop me and ask just what exactly I'm doing and/or seeing. (Whoops.) (And that, folks, is seriously just about as dangerous as I've ever gotten in my whole life, ever.)

Comedy/Tragedy on Court Street

Spotted this on my walk home recently.

As I knelt down to get a closer pic, some dude walked by and accidentally kicked it. With shoes that could be clown shoes.

And it sort of made me laugh.

Note: On this very same walk, I also spied a half-deflated, unidentifiable balloon animal in a garbage can. (It was just too sad to photograph.) What is the message here, Brooklyn?
