Since taking my mandatory exile from work, I've volunteered to take over the school shuffle (i.e. the Great East Village Trek), giving my wife a bit of a breather. Today was just such as day. After dropping Charlotte off, I took to the streets with my camera. Maybe I'm still living in the past, but I'm still struck by the differences in the neighborhood between its more notorious era (see here for a little glimpse of same) and today. Still, there's plenty of photogenically compelling stuff there, if you know where to look. It saddens me how dark Ludlow Street is now, its former sunlit expanse now blocked by those soulless condos.

Nice shots. We've been noticing a whole new round of graffiti on the roofs of buildings. Since you have time I'm calling on you to take up the challenge!
