To view my photographs, left-click on one. Once the giant version appears on your screen, right-click on it and select "view image." This will size the photo to fit your screen. Now you needn't view an extreme enlargement that you must scroll through piecemeal.
Thanks to Evelyn for pointing out how to get around this annoying quirk in the new version of Blogger!

An uncommon visitor
Tompkins Square in the East Village of Manhattan evidently has a resident hawk.This majestic bird was perched in a tree Sunday afternoon and drew a crowd that raptly watched its every move. It flew from tree to tree and perched several times on wrought iron fences just feet from transfixed human observers.
After surveying the grounds, it swooped down on a rat it spotted hiding under a bush about 50 feet away.
Talk about a hawkeye.
In one smooth movement, it caught the rat in its talons (you can just make it out in the bottom photo) and flew to a distant tree to enjoy his meal high above prying eyes.

"The Bicycle Man"
He goes by the name "Bicycle Man." People come from all over New York City to have him work his magic on their ailing cycles. There's usually a long line of customers. His open-air shop is just outside Tompkins Square Park in the East Village.
