Light paint attempt, exposure fail. I had the shutter improperly configured, so the effect was very faint. I did however, like the way the shot came out, so I kept it. Taken in the 5 Pointz/Court Square area of Queens.

Homer Simpson Malady
Eh a Homer, don't think the nuclear power plant is right for you. This shot was taken with some friends (links to their Flickr Photostreams below), who are in town to document Occupy Wall Street. They introduced me to light painting, which admittedly, I've never tried until now. Its requires lots of extra gear and prep work, but its a blast.

From Long Island City With Love III - Nocturnal Edition
This is the third installment in my Long Island City, Queens series, which features the Jackson Avenue and Davis Street vicinity. This area is close to the Long Island City Courthouse.
Many of the industrial buildings in this area have become a canvas for graffiti artists. Some of the graffiti in this area reminds me of what you can find in Brooklyn.

The 7 Train curves into the 45th Road – Court House Square station in Long Island City along the IRT Flushing Line. The green atop the train indicates that its running local. This line is sometimes dubbed the International Express due to the various ethnic neighborhoods along its stops. John Rocker (of Atlanta Braves fame) once blasted this train, Mets fans, and all of NYC in general with an Archie Bunker-esque diatribe; as I always say, words spoken by d-bags need not be taken seriously...

Some random gritty beams holding up the IRT Flushing Line...

Graffiti, Propane Tanks, and a single crate...
