Ad Under Wiper
A black-and-white advertisement had been placed under the wiper of a car parked along Prospect Street. It was the only car on the street with that ad, so the ad might really have been a personal note.

Blackbird On Curb
A blackbird cast a black shadow on a sunny day. The dark grey curb and the asphalt street created a very monotone look.

Killed Ivy
Ivy lined the sidewalk of Bryant Street where it passes over Delancey Street. Each winter it is killed back so that it will not overgrown the side walk the following year. Even though killed back, it still manages to almost block the sidewalk by late fall.
