park slope in bloom

People tend to think that Brooklyn is a bleak place lacking in any kind of greenery. While on a walk today, I decided to set the record straight. In a 20 block radius of Park Slope, I took nearly two dozen photos on my cell phone camera to prove that people really do care about their yards and gardens here, and that Brooklyn has plenty to offer to those who enjoy all things natural ...
even in an urban setting.

These are a few of the things I saw ... more photos to come.



A sculpture flashes the peace sign ...


A spare patch of land can be turned into a jungle of flowers and bushes.

Fences look classier when draped in white blooms.

Even sidewalks can use a little help ...


Row homes always look better with a little decorating!
