This photo was taken back when Battery Park City was still a beach. 

I spent many a night/morning on this beach. Magical memories and now poignant.

nicely done. Blade Runner, Black Rain, a memorable night in Chiantown - all rolled into one image….

World’s Best Dad Draws on Over 1,000 Sandwich Bags for Kids

Artist David LaFerriere’s kids must be constantly thrilled to open up their lunch boxes. After making the kids’ sandwiches, LaFerriere uses sharpie pens to draw a quick illustration on the outside of the plastic bag. He photographs his work, and the kids don’t see the artwork until they sit down at school to have their meal.

An inspiring type of family art. As a dad, I think this is awesome!

Moebius

I have always loved the fantasy of Moebius. Landscapes you want to teleport into…

Dreamy, spooky, cool and wonderous

The recent unprecedented video footage of a giant squid filmed in its deep ocean habitat has renewed interest in the enormous — and yet still mysterious — species. It’s believed that giant squid (genus Architeuthis) can grow up to 55 feet long. The individual captured on video via a small submarine located in the North Pacific Ocean was about 30 feet long and silver and gold in color, marine biologist Edie Widder, who helped to shoot the footage, said. Her colleague Tsunemi Kubodera added that the squid was missing its two longest tentacles. Cephalopod experts are intrigued by the world record footage.
