25 Of My Favorite Urban Abstractions of 2011

I’m always looking for interesting abstract images created from every day life in this fine city of New York. Here are 25 of my favorite ones that I took in 2011. The picture above is just rain-soaked newspaper fround on a Manhattan sidewalk.

Foreign Domestic Landscapes

From the sculptures that I make to the images that I look for to photograph, it’s almost always an abstract landscape with combined contents from man and nature’s interaction, ideally found in unsuspecting locations. Here are some shots I took all along a block of Eagle Street between West and Franklin Streets, Greenpoint, Brooklyn, USA. Click on images for better details.

Urban Campfire

Did you just return from the hunt and ready to grill your carcass?

Come on down to the strange and filthy land of Northern Greenpoint. I found this sand-filled, asphalt-made fire pit on Eagle Street near West Street, aka No Man’s land.
