A group of Lion Heads wait for the Dancers to arrive & bring them to life. The Monday photo challenge is stacks & piles. When I saw this array of costumes headpieces I thought it might be perfect.

I've been seeing Hardy's steel wool spinning shots and have wanted to try it for a while. Opened my tool box and had a full bag of it (steel wool) which reminded me of this. Put together my "rig" with cotton rope with some copper wire on the end. Worked like a charm.
This insured that I need a wider lens...soon! Also wish I would have framed this better, oh well, next time.
What is your birth years animal?
This weekend was the Chinatown Street Fair celebrating Lunar New Year 4709 the Year of the Rabbit.
This is an annual event in Chinatown and about 500,000 people visit over the 2 days eating delicious food, buying items, watching performances and enjoying the various booths. I will be adding more pictures over the next few days.

Managed to squeeze in a few hours at the Packard Plant after Easter brunch. Had a few ideas "burning" a hole in my camera bag. LOL.
I set the camera settings, my friend Derek framed the shot and fired the shutter.....Left the tripod in the truck. Thanks D!

A vintage Japanese New Year card, showing the moon hare (tsuki-no-usagi) pounding sticky rice (mochi) in his mortar and pestle. Far from being a cute bunny rabbit, he is a fierce magical hare.
The Year of the Hare is the year of leaping wonder, those born under this sign are known to be vigilant, quick-minded and ingenious.

In celebration of the new year, the Chinatown Community Young Lions dancers performed in Manhattan’s Chinatown on Sunday, Jan. 22, including at the subway station at East Broadway and by tapping with OMNY to board an M9 bus, bringing blessings and good fortune to riders.

It snowed. A lot. Then it got warm. Then it got cold again. Very cold. The result? What you see here: ice. Everything in sight is encased in the glittering, glowing stuff. Each twig on each tree looks as though it is made of glass. Water-drops, frozen in time, decorate the world like delicate tassels. Through all this, tiny, icy snowflakes flutter down from a clear sky.
I was going to take a picture to celebrate Chinese New Year (happy year of the rabbit, folks!) but I got too distracted by this outdoor phenomenon to think of photographing anything else.
