Union Street (Tribute to J.M.W. Turner)

If you don't know who JMW Turner is, look him up!  His paintings are amazing, and were the inspiration for this photo.  The photo was taken with a Canon SD 1400 IS point-and-shoot on ISO 80 while I was walking around 9:00pm 2.3.2011.

4th Ave Arch.

I've always been fond of this arch.  The F train (and now the G) travels over it.  4th Ave under it.  It looks old and ugly now but if you pay attention to the details it was probably very beautiful when it opened.  Apparently it's restoration is part of this big Culver Viaduct MTA project.  I'll keep track of the progress, plus I'll add other details of this arch in future postings, to try to show you the beauty I see in it.
