2015 CONEY ISLAND "MERMAID PARADE"

Saturday was a day for ducks (or mermaids) as the 33rd annual Mermaid 
Parade at Coney Island gathered under what started as inclement weather. It 
cleared and this annual celebration of outrageous costumery and all things 
nautical roared to life with classic fervor...

BERLIN- PART 2

                           It's hard to reduce a week's photo gathering to ten pix, so here's 
                                  a small add-on batch from our recent travels to Berlin.

the ubiquitous hooded crow REM-ing away...

The base of an egg timer sculpture in the lively Krueuzberg neighborhood...

the Berlin Bear laughs at your selfies and invites you into
his photo booth...

Big moth in a small alley...

found at the big Berlin flea market, ...and the animated
 "Swing and Sing" fish was not far away...

                                 The Field of Stelae, a powerful half city block memorial 
                             to the Murdered Jews of Europe built on the former grounds 
                             of the Gestapo in the center of Berlin.
