Please be aware... I am no coin expert. Titles here are either what I was told when acquiring these or are from a simple Google search. I make no claim as to them being 100% accurate but I make an effort to be as factual as I am able when posting. There may well be some duplication of coin type or variety, but I try not to double post any single coins. My feeble brain may slip on that from time to time. These are all from my semi worthless collection of world coins from over the years. Little to no value exists in most (if not all) of them. They are just a hobby.

My photo-summer wouldn't have been complete without a late-August shot of some sunflowers. It was hot, hot, hot that day, so I included the burning sun in the frame to give everybody a taste of that.
To make it slightly different than my (and everybody else's) previous sunflower shots, I went a bit crazy with the processing -- for my standards, that is. I also chose a square crop (I felt like copying Brad's idea).

In the 1970's New York's graffiti writers battled the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) which sought to eliminate graffiti on the Subway system. One crew enlisted the MTA to help them:
"Writers 'borrowed' whatever suited their fancy from other sources. in the case of the MTA [Mad Transit Artists] crew, this extended to the Metropolitan Transportation Authority's own initials, which were already painted on every train as part of their "official" design. Thereby, the Metropolitan Transportation Authority got up for the MTA crew" --- from "Taking the Train: how Graffiti Art Became an Urban Crisis in New York City" by Joe Austin. Columbia University Press, New York 2001.
So - with all this history, is it significant that someone is putting up stickers in the design of NY subway tokens? Could be, or they could be selling some edgy toothpaste or something. I don't know.

They are actually accurate representations of tokens from the nearby Foundling Museum - The museum remembers for posterity the Foundling Hospital, set up in the mid 18th century as a home for unwanted babies who were then raised and educated by the institution. Some of these children were left a token by their mothers as a remembrance which – sadly – they were never given.
Broken-down Soviet war equipment still dots the Panjshir valley here and there; I'm not sure if the ones gathered here were supposed to have been personally captured by Massoud, or what.
