From the gallery: LEFT OUT TO DRY

LEFT OUT TO DRY: It’s the unofficial end to summer. Washington Square Park is brimming with activity, especially in the coveted sprays of the central fountain.  NYU University looms around the circumference of the (9.75 acre) park as the students and local residents enjoy those last romps in the fountain, perfecting their summer’s tan and just lazing in the sun while those soggy sneakers are left out to dry.

Photo of the day: LABOR PAINS

LABORER: “$200.”
                       “How about $150?”
                       “$200.”
                       “Aw common, can’t you do it for less?”
                       “$200.”
In honor of ALL laborers out there, lol!
There are millions of different types of laborers in this country. Some wear hard hats, some wear suits, some wear very, very short skirts.
