Pictured is Jackie Harris' world famous (or so I have read) "art car" -- the "Fruitmobile." This 1967 Ford station wagon was turned into the Fruitmobile in 1984, and it still participates in Houston's art car parade. Speaking of Houston, I photographed the Fruitmobile in Houston Hobby Airport in May 2025 while waiting for my flight to come in.

Photograph of the Visitation of the Blessed Virgin Mary Roman Catholic Church in Red Hook (Brooklyn, NYC). I took this photograph on April 19, 2025 using the GrapheneOS camera app on my Google Pixel 6a, and shared it in a short post commemorating Easter in 2025. One year later, I share it for Easter 2026.

(Aside: I took this photo a few minutes after taking the profile photo I use for NLJ and Emu Cafe Social.)

The Moon was bright on March 12, 2025. Here, I was standing at the intersection of Joralemon Street and Boerum Place in Downtown Brooklyn. I took this photo before the light changed.

I took this photograph through my window (Brooklyn, NYC) on February 22, 2026. You can see a very snow-covered tree (it will soon be covered in pink flowers). This photo came out surprisingly well given the conditions and my limited Ubuntu Touch-powered camera on my Google Pixel 3a XL (if I do say so myself). Only mildly touched up with Krita.

Pictured is a memorial bust of Robert F. Kennedy in Columbus Park near Brooklyn Borough Hall. I took the photo on February 24, 2026, which was the day following a blizzard. You should not need all 20 questions to ascertain which way the wind had been blowing.

A goose in Brooklyn Bridge Park stares at the Statue of Liberty. To be sure, it was not actually staring at the Statue of Liberty, but sometimes your photograph just works out that way. There were actually about 14-15 geese on the snow in Brooklyn Bridge Park on that February 13, 2026 afternoon, you can see some of the group photos in my article: https://thenewleafjournal.com/geese-in-the-snow-in-brooklyn-bridge-park-02-13-26/

I included these "snow bears" in an article covering snowmen I saw around Brooklyn Between February 24-28.

I took this photo in Brooklyn Heights (NYC) just after 11:00 PM on August 15, 2025. The recall having noticed that headlights seemed to be growing brighter a few years ago. It turned out I wasn't the first person to notice. This is downright excessive!

I used this photo in an article about my second pair of anti-headlight glasses:

I took this photo of a bowl of cherries on February 17, 2024. Is there a story? There is not MUCH of a story, but I published my thoughts on low-price out-of-season fruit in Brooklyn, New York City.
