The food cart is at the bus stop. I didn't spot the vendor.He could get a ticket for parking cart there.
I took this Photograph on August 26, 1992 in the AMTRAK/New Jersey Transit Sunnyside Railroad Yard in Long Island City, Queens, (New York City) New York. It shows a General Electric built E60 Passenger Locomotive in Sunnyside Yard in Long Island City, Queens, New York.
Sunnyside Yard is the main Coach Yard for storing Passenger Cars of both Amtrak and New Jersey Transit during the day. Commuters take trains from New York City and New Jersey Suburbs traveling to Manhattan each morning and returning, after work, to their homes in the suburbs in the evening. Sunnyside Yard is near Harold Interlocking.
NOTE: U60's were only used for Long Distance Trains, so I don't know why it was found at Sunnyside Yard.
The E60C draws AC Electrical Power from the Overhead Catenary using the Locomotive's Pantograph and converts it DC Power for the Traction Motors which turn the Wheels of the Locomotive. For more detailed information about the E60C, See:

This is your average busy day in NYC, yellow cabs, busy crosswalks and rows of buildings.

I love everytyhing about the coffee houses in Austin. I love the smell, the sounds, the energy, the relaxing morning of sitting down with a newspaper, going through the crossword, sipping apple juice, eating something called a Pecan Snail at Quack's, while the light from the morning sun sleepily drags across the store from one side to the other.
If you ignore your fines, moving violations, court ordered alimony or child support, and park your car on the street for long periods, it's only a matter of time.
And not even an experienced lawyer or your alderman can help you.

I have a coffee shop I like. It's no longer on my way to work, but I love the people. And the beans. So I started adding 20 minutes to my commute, so I can maintain some old rituals, and visit Joe in Grand Central in the morning before work. It's an extra train, and an extra 15 minute walk, but it makes me happy. So I do it.
I'm walking out of Grand Central this morning, and I see this. This guy, with dead flowers in his hands. Completely torn down, smoking, seemingly defeated. Upon closer look, these might be feathers.
Who is this man?
What is he doing? I perched my coffee on the pavement, dragged out my camera, and took some shots. Sometimes I fail to get the subject from the front because it's difficult or I feel invasive, but here I wanted the mystery. I feel it was about his body language, and the sheer unanswered questions from this strange scene. This also isn't Black and White, but it's not selective color, either. I've been pulling down the vibrance and saturation to near-black and white, and letting the strong colors remain on their own. It's a cool compromise between Black and White, with some of the impact of color, which I'm really liking.
Anyway, one of the few day-light shots you'll see from me for a while.

vtboyarc: Excellent, I love the way they're in the light, as if as spotlight is on them
minkxxx: Yes …great capture. Natural spotlight! X
iamakittehcouch: @vtboyarc @findingfluffy @minkxxx Thanks! You can't see it here but this "smoking area" has a no smoking sign!
This is the back wall of my favorite coffee shop in Seattle, Lighthouse Roasters. I have been trying to get a feel for the FA 50mm lens. It's depth of field can be razor thin, so it requires practice to get right when using manual focus, and always seems to be a bit off on auto focus.
Jenn and I stopped by to get some beans, and a cup of french press.
American icons: The US flag and Uncle Sam at the U.S. Armed Forces Career Center on Times Square at Broadway & 43rd St. Starbucks and some "www." sneak into the picture as well.
The Nasdaq MarketSite at 4 Times Square on the corner of 43rd and Broadway.
The upper part of the 7-story tower is an electronic video display that measures 44 feet by 14 feet. If you look at the display you will notice blank areas that appear to be windows.
The lower part of the building composed of glass walls is actually a television studio for shows like Fast Money and Squawk Box. If you watch Fast Money you can usually see the people walking by on the street in the background behind the commentators.
The picture actually looked pretty bland so I did a two-bracket tone map and thought it looked much more interesting.

This scene continually changes, and believe it or not, the signage doesn't always get more dramatic or mesmerizing.
The gone, but not forgotten, Coca-Cola sign was as entertaining as any of these, with its gigantic bottle that emptied as a huge straw emerged. Watch this YouTube video closely and see the contents magically refill for the next performance.
