Venturing Into Brooklyn

This is another in my series of urban landscapes. It was taken in Brooklyn on a cloudy afternoon. I haven't done too much in Brooklyn, but am eager to do more.

The Gowanus Canal in Brooklyn was just named a Super Fund cleanup site. I took photographs of the Gowanus at night on a trip with the Municipal Art Society. You can see some of these photos on the Municipal Art Society's website at
