In honor of #NYCC here is an image from the Jacob Javits Center 12 years ago. Its a good reminder to have a lot of cash on hand before you go. #UrbanGaze #Photography

Handwritten warning posted on an ATM reading "Don't do it, bro — it'll take your monies and not give you any cash, I warned you about ATM bros," with a small surprised doodle below.

Handwritten warning taped over an ATM advising users the machine isn’t dispensing cash and is charging fees, featuring large “NOOO!” and “USE AT RISK” text and a panicked cartoon person drawn beside the message.

The message reads in full: Nooo! Don't try to use this ATM... or any of them. They are not giving out money but are charging you. Use At Risk.

I dunno, I think that is an excellent picture - I certainly didn't see it from that view

Wonderful! And good on them to go on with the bit!

No, but I saw them (well a few, there were a lot of people standing on them). Impressive names!

actually that is pretty cool! Though seeing the throngs of people standing in the pit throughout an entire Shakespeare play and still having a blast was very cool too.

Waiting for the show! Shakespeare's Globe Theatre London, England #Photography #HumansOfBlueSky #UrbanGaze

Packed crowd fills the standing yard and three-tier wooden galleries of a reconstructed Elizabethan open-air theatre, watching the central wooden stage.

So I decided to write a short reworking of The Time Machine. Not really sure why. I posted it to Daily Kos, because it is political, as the story always has been. The Morlock Theory www.dailykos.com/stories/2026...

That is good looking pizza (despite my being a NYC pizza snob)! I like the Miyazaki poster - I feel the only thing the world can agree on any more is that Studio Ghibli makes great movies.

Thank you Beav! Autumn kind of snuck up on me, but now I'm enjoying the cooler days and colorful trees.

I think it definitely did with this image!

Thank you Robyn! I could pretend I waited for hours to capture that precise moment, but it just happened to look like that when I walked by :-)

The varying depths in that shot remind me of the landscapes I might see in an old stereograph. Though yours is in color. Awesome shot!

Beav Really does look like he loves Loka, it’s like he’s got his arms around the bottles but we just can’t see them. I think we’re all shocked by nude ice cream.

Gothic church tower with a tall spire and decorative pinnacles dramatically backlit by the sun, forming a halo against a clear blue sky, a clock face visible on the tower and the nave and trees at its base.

Your never too old for the house of bounce! Just you may not bounce as much.

It’s beautiful! But I worry about the wild animals. That beaver makes buying a wood house seem like tempting fate

On the right - a local church On the left - the Town Hall It's called the separation of church and state And what comes in between? Bouncy houses - we can't forget the bouncy houses. It might be the only thing that keeps this country together. #Photography #BlueSkyArtShow #3rdPlace

Colorful inflatable bounce houses and slides at a community fall fair on a town green, framed by trees turning red and a white town hall clock tower and a steeple against a clear blue sky.

Midtown Manhattan hosts the artificial park that comes out of the Hudson on massive white mushrooms. Known as Little Island this artificial Island is the 3rd largest artificial Island in #NYC. The larger islands being quarantine islands from the 1800s. #Photography #BlueSkyArtShow #3rd Place

For a second there I thought that that was his shadow there to the right of him (then I realized the sun was shining from a completely different angle.

I never thought about it that way, but places of worship were probably the original 3rd space: neither home nor work.

Yeah I’ve had to stop on the layflat books because i needed a lot of pages - too many pictures

People will part like the sea when they see the adorable Beav!

Great photo! You can tell he’s looking for his bowl of fruit loops

That is an amazing trial - but yeah, I think I'd have to opt-out, alas.

Well if a tree falls in the forest and no one is there to hear it does it still make a sound? Probably :-) (And thanks!!)

Walking through a Redwood Forest is an awe inspiring thing. It's a bit hard to tell in the photo but this remaining chunk of root flare is at least 15ft tall. I took a photo before this for two tall tourists and the top of their heads were just beneath the black center. #ForestFriday #Photography

Massive exposed root crown of an uprooted old-growth tree forming a twisted, cathedral-like wooden sculpture surrounded by ferns and sunlit green leaves in a dense temperate rainforest.

Wow - lot of typos ("note" and not "not", "hollow" and not "hallow"). Could you all do me a favor if anything I said in this rant doesn't make sense just rearrange word order and spelling until it does. Thank you in advance!
