Pitkin Avenue Mural Dreams

Greetings My Photography Fans. Yesterday some of you were unable to view the pictures I posted of my walk along Pitkin and Ralph Avenues in Brooklyn, New York. Today I am trying a different way to download and incorporate the snapshots into this post which I truly hope will be more successful and everyone will be able to enjoy my pictures. I also threw in some weird bird sculpture photos I took in Manhattan near 34th Street last March.  Here goes!!

Hugh’s Weekly Photo Challenge: Week 20 – Solitude

Solitude. Immersion. Oblivious to external stimulation. Technology Isolation and Concentration on a Brooklyn Street.
