I have been photographing the disappearing diners and delis of Brooklyn for a while and this year was the worst with two of my favorites in Boro Park.

Things can get kind of pretentious around here. There's a lot from the good old days to admire. Little things had more value, things that happen organically and not by the orientation dredged out of a focus group or someone's narcicissm. People sold things because people needed them, not as a way of implementing a marketing strategy.<BR/><BR/>And so many superficial seductions today just leave people craving even more bullshit. More, bigger, better bullshit.<BR/><BR/>OK, maybe I should just stop now, with the wish for a balanced and honest world in the future.amarillahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06145474039245058818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2468179197946374164.post-40433012838901531542007-12-14T07:45:00.000-05:002007-12-14T07:45:00.000-05:00Thanks for the photos..
