summer in the city



I took this photo of the stoop across the street from my window at about 3 a.m.. The stoop of focus occasionally has lingering characters, and I think only the top floor is used as a studio for painting, with the building generally vacant, so it gets some lingerers. This evening had a particularly good character. There are a few things of interest-
  1. neighbor is in his underwear, resting in a jaunty position in the doorframe.
  2. neighbor is wearing business-like black socks, pulled up, in ninety degree humid heat, to accent said underwear.
  3. neighbor has hand deep into underwear.
now playing: Grizzly Bear, who sounds like Jeff Buckley at times, especially the first track (of their recent Veckamist), but the current track sounds a lot like the Beach Boys.
