This week’s Photo Challenge is On the Move.
My first response showed massive objects on the move to a purposeful destination. So, by way of contrast, this post features ephemeral movement in frivolous circles… :-)
All taken in NYC, respectively at the 2013 Coney Island Mermaid Parade, at the 2011 Figment art festival, and in 2011 at Central Park’s Wollman Rink.
