On a recent trip to Brooklyn I took 4th Avenue down to Park Slope and then 5th Avenue back to the Verrazano Bridge.
Both avenues take you through Bay Ridge and Sunset Park, down to Park Slope and on to Downtown Brooklyn and the court district.
4th Avenue is a busy 6 lane thoroughfare; 2 lanes in each direction and 1 parking lane on each side.
5th Avenue is one lane is each direction and is a huge shopping area.
and then I had to wait to go home to NJ
Some scenes from my last visit back to the MotherLand of Brooklyn
An old home in a town near me.
The destruction all around me due to Hurricane Sandy is a constant heartache. I keep finding out about another place that is gone.
I decided to take some comfort in the places that survived.
This old gal is one of the survivors.
the Jersey Joe's shop seemed to be in a converted garage on the other side of the house. I could picture Mrs. Joe stirring the Sunday Sauce.
Pretty enough white fence
Then ...
I just love this house ...
I posted some early spring shots of this house and its neighbor Here
I love how fluid reflections can be. You can create your own moving reflection show depending on your point of view.
I noticed a shop sign reflected in this window ...
As I got closer, the reflection changed ...
Magic
