coney island memories

This coming spring/summer is the last season that the Coney Island I have always know and loved will exist.
The powers that be want to modernize it.
Heart and I took these pics on one of his trips to NYC.
I can still taste the greasy fries, and smell the salt spray mixed with 40 odd varieties of sunscreen.

    All I’ve ever seen of Coney Island must have been in the movies, but you have captured that atmosphere so well!
    I love your pictures; and I mean it, I’m not just saying that!

  7. Unfortunately “modernizing” isn’t always a good thing. These are great pictures!
