History of the site:
After 40 years in business the Neptune Diner located in Astoria, Queens, NYC served its last meal on Sunday, July 29. 2024. The owners claimed they were not given a chance to renew their lease, because the property will soon be turned into a residential building.
Since 1983, The Katsihtis brothers have owned the building on Astoria Boulevard but not the land, which was sold in 2018 for over $10 million.
The brothers also had a 35-year lease which expired in 2019. But since then, they were not able to come to a long-term agreement with the landlord.

But that's what Long Island City/Astoria needs is another apartment building. It's already so overbuilt, it's ridiculous. Yet they keep tearing them down and building new ones, many of which are luxury rentals. The neighborhood is losing its character to steel and glass.

When it comes to photography many times I can be unconventional, in that why must one point a camera down at something, or level with a subject. Why even look through the viewfinder at all? Why not just take a photo from the ground up, or from within the branches of a flowering shrub for that matter

The more you know
Many birds intentionally sit close together because it makes them a much more difficult target for predators -- lots more lookouts, no way to sneak up on them.

This photo was taken on July 30, 2022. I had just past my 1-year anniversary off cigarettes, in addition it was also my 6th month alcohol free. Beginning of great stuff.
I had quit each of those vices as a gift to myself for my 60th Birthday, which had been on August 16, 2022. After I had taken this photo, I proceeded to take this amazingly long walk through Long Island City into Sunnyside. I remember the day exactly, as I'd taken so many amazing photos
