I was wandering around 2nd Avenue about 6pm and thought I’d waste a bit o’ camera memory.  Here’s a view I see all the time.

Here’s a simple photo of Madison Avenue at a Friday lunchtime.  I sometimes go to a place called ‘wichcraft that makes incredible sandwiches (it’s on 46th between Madison and Fifth).  On Friday, I went again.  My photo of the place didn’t come out.

I went up to the Upper West Side to get a haircut this morning and saw a broken down taxi.  You may have heard of “taxi medallions” and how expensive they are (the cost of a Manhattan apartment).  Here’s what one looks like:

Watering plants

I was going out to dinner last night and saw an interesting sight:  how they water the plants.  Just a few guys in a water truck trundling along 42nd Street.

It looks like I’ve got lots of pictures up now, so I’ll save some bandwidth.  Click to make it bigger.
