Vintage snapshot photo of the Cyclone Roller Coaster in Coney Island Brooklyn, New York. Not the best image, but I sharpened it slightly so you can read the Cyclone sign. Always a pleasure to be able to bring images like this to light. This found photograph is from the private collection of an unknown and/or unknowing art collector. It’s always a thrill when it’s from Vinnie DeVille!

For/Pra Esther, com carinho...

These are clearly not your run-of-the-mill mermaids! Their hair alone sets them apart; they clearly attach great importance to their "look." They were (and ARE) eye-catchers!

The Marie-Antoinette one in the foreground proves her mermaid status with her sea-green eyelashes. The one in the background, with the lovely milk-white shoulders has a starfish friend giving a lending hand as a decoration. How else would a starfish get to the Mermaid Parade?

Coney Island; Brooklyn, NY.

...as the sun sets on Labor Day. A high point in anyone's life, if they've got the guts to get on that venerable roller coaster: something I'll never do!

 

I loved the way the white structure of the Cyclone took on an ever-so-slight yellow tint, thanks to the intense orange light of the setting sun, which also heightened the red of the cars and rails.

 

This aerial view was taken from the adjacent Astroland Tower...the only ride in Coney Island for wimps like me!

 

Astroland, Coney Island

Brooklyn, New York City

Update 2007: This is a highly nostalgic shot now; Astroland is no more (sniff!). The Astroland Tower is still standing, but no longer turns and rises. You can't even get near it, as far as I know. It's a relic of bygone days. Thankfully the Cyclone Rollercoaster is classified as a National Landmark and still lives, moves and shakes--to the delight of tens of thousands every summer!

Vintage image dated 1977 of the Coney Island amusement landscape at the time. Labeled on the back of the photo as the Big Three, we have the former Astroland Tower, the Wonder Wheel and the Cyclone Roller Coaster. While I do respect the unknown photographer’s opinion, my Big Three, as a New Yorker, for 1977, are Son of Sam, the Blackout and the Yankees winning the World Series. This found photograph is from the private collection of an unknown and/or unknowing art collector. It’s always a thrill when it’s from Vinnie DeVille!

Memorial Day: Zamperla's Discovery Ride --renamed the Eclipse at Luna--in action. It's similar to a HUSS Frisbee. That's the landmark Cyclone Roller Coaster across the street.

Coney Island 2012 Mermaid Parade. Famous Cyclone Rollercoaster in background.

Vintage abstract image of the tail end of a 1958 Cadillac Sixty Special with the Coney Island Cyclone Roller Coaster in the background. This photo would have been taken in the early 1980s as evidenced by the line up of cars in the background and the Astroland sign on the Cyclone. At that time Astroland was responsible for the operation of the ride. This found photograph is from the private collection of an unknown and/or unknowing art collector. It’s always a thrill when it’s from Vinnie DeVille!

The Wonder Wheel and the Cyclone at night during sunset on the beach at Coney Island in Brooklyn, New York City.

 

Beach sunsets overlooking the twinkling lights of Coney Island's iconic ferris wheel and roller coaster are some of my absolute favorite sunsets.

Vintage detail image of the Coney Island Cyclone Roller Coaster neon sign in Brooklyn NY. Scan is from a Kodachrome slide taken in the 1960s. Nice piece of vintage advertising, signage and Coney Island history. It’s always a thrill when it’s from Vinnie DeVille!

Vintage image of a well-dressed man in a suit jacket and tie riding on the first car of the Cyclone Roller Coaster in Coney Island Brooklyn, New York. Now that is something you rarely see on the ride, let alone being in the first car. I would like to think he was just driving in the neighborhood and his urges got the better of him.

Leaving Coney Island Brooklyn on F train, Labor Day, September 4, 2017. First stop was West 8th Street New York Aquarium. Wonder wheel and famous 90 year old wooden Cyclone Roller Coaster can be seen in Video, as well as Deno's Amusement Park. Coney Island has a long history. Coney Island has street cred, a grit even today, that is rapidly vanishing in allot of New York. I believe Coney Island Brooklyn will always attract people searching for that edge. It still lives at Coney.

On April 15,, 1994, I drove to Coney Island (Brooklyn) New York to Photograph some of the attractions on the Boardwalk Here are two photos of the Cyclone Roller Coaster, which I both rode and photographed.

I took these two photographs with my Minolta Maxxim 5000 35 mm SLR Film Camera with Slide Film, I scanned the slides to generate these Electronic Images.
