Dot Earth – Climate Change & Sustainability – The melting Arctic icecap, as seen from a NASA satellite in September 2007. (AFP/Getty Images)Our planet is a lonely speck in the great enveloping cosmic dark. In our obscurity — in all this vastness — there is no hint that help will come from elsewhere to save us from ourselves. It is up to us. — Carl Sagan, “Pale Blue Dot” speech, 1996

Previously posted another image of this wall entitled Bread (on Sutphin Blvd) but have since identified a possible name of the business. This pentimento also has the words “Castle” and “Beach” peeking through. Any leads on this, please comment.
Reproduction of an ad campaign to counter discrimination against gays showing a newborn with the word “homosexual” written on his wristband. The slogan on the ad which was published in Italian national newspapers, reads “Sexual orientation is not a choice.” MSN
Gail Albert Halaban contacted me about her brilliant documentary project and I wanted to post it as quickly as I could.
Gail Albert Halaban, photographer, in collaboration with the Design Trust for Public Space is working on a documentary photography project about people and their views in New York City and beyond.
Be part of a documentary photography project…
We are looking for all types of people that have all types of views that are descriptive to New York City.
If you look out your window and see a pizza parlor, or you have a view of a bridge or some other famous landmark, you have a view of where the World Trade Center used to be, you have a view into other people’s windows, or you have a view of buildings being renovated, then we are looking to photograph you and your view. Basically, we are looking for all types of people and views that describe the old and the new New York, and the ever changing skyline. If you live in Manhattan, Queens, New Jersey, Brooklyn, the Bronx, or Staten Island, and want to be a part of this photography project, please contact us at newyorkviews@gmail.com with a jpg of you and your view today! You will receive a print for your participation.
