Ed Ruscha’s Honey, I Twisted Through More Damn Traffic Today at West 22nd Street. The 28 x 50-foot mural is the artist’s first public commission in NYC.
I always love the way blossoms and greenery give a different perspective to things, an especially when you look at that photo of the railway line. What’s that about I wonder ?
Love the beauty of the blossoms, especially the railroad and all the crazy characters.
Kind of makes me think, “Yuck” about men, though. Poor Frosty. I hope you used a telephoto lens and didn’t have to see those 2 guys that close. Well, Spring does feel good enough to act crazy after the awful long winter everyone endured in NY.
BTW, is that the building on the West Side Hwy that is lit up purple at night? Love that bldg.
There’s always the possibility of two crazies with matching bikini bottoms, but this time it is only one person! LOL And yes, poor FROSTY!! Thank you!!
Yet another wonderful collection of shots, I love the cycle shot but I confess I cycle so it’s a biker thing, the lone pink tree against the building is sublime, the dude with the exceptional pants is bizarre yet strangely compelling mainly because of the questions and possible narrative. I love the train tracks I would be there in a heartbeat as I suspect there are a host of images awaiting.

Beautiful flowers. I love them all. However, I’m still trying to figure out what the heck that man is trying to do to poor Frosty the Snowman??? XoXo

My favorite is the one you made of the IAC Building – all that Frank Ghery translucent white goodness with just a little bit of pink – fantastic!
