New York Shitty Slide Show Du Jour: Queens Selections

As I mentioned previously today I took an afternoon sojourn in Queens. Truth be told, I was not in “in the zone”. Some days I am more photographically-inclined than others. But I did have my moments— such as the above image. It has a certain Edward Hopper quality I kind of like. What was even more interesting is what I stumbled upon— quite literally— immediately after taking said photo.

A motel fit for a queen— albeit one on a tight schedule. I told the Mister this is where I want to spend our fourth wedding anniversary. He quipped that he was nonplussed that they don’t charge by the quarter hour. So it goes. Without further ado here are some shots from today’s sojourn around Queens. Enjoy!

Making this chap’s acquaintance was one of the many delights from today’s sojourn around Queens with Carnade. I’ll be compiling a mini slide show of my finds— so stay tuned!

From The New York Shitty Inbox: Anyone Want A Guitar?

there’s a free guitar on morgan ave at nassau ave. it appears to have been dressed up and bloodied or something. post it if the heat kept you from your photojournalistic ventures.

Duly posted— and thanks for the contribution! As it would happen I have been spending a great deal of time at home enjoying the comfort of air conditioning and cleaning the kitchen. The latter has been a rather nasty affair— but I suspect it was/is mere child’s play compared to what this objet d’ art has experienced!
