Coney Island remains open for another season!

Coney Island will stay open through next season.  I am very happy to hear that we can enjoy Burlesque at the Beach once again.

Eli Valley on Flickr has fantastic shots of life in good ol' NYC.  I especially love his Dogs of New York set.

I always appreciate a photographer who can shoot pictures of strangers; you must be fearless to be a great photographer. 

I love how intense his stare is, though there's a kindness there.  And I think it's great that his kitten is making the same face.  A great shot.

Post Parade, originally uploaded by Rock and Racehorses.

There are a number of great horse photographers on Flickr, and Sarah K. Andrew, AKA RockandRacehorses, is my favorite.  She shoots thoroughbreds on the track which, growing up on a diet of PETA, I've never been a big supporter of, but she has a unique ability to capture what is so incredible about horses - their strength, determination, and physical beauty - that keeps me coming back for more.

She shoots other disciplines as well: polo, dressage, eventing.  I'm grateful that Flickr has made it a little easier for good photographers like her to rise to the surface.

How 'bout them Cowgirls, originally uploaded by cowgirlrightup.

I love the determination in her face and the ease of her body language.  No matter where I may find myself in this weird world, if I'm on a horse, I'm happiest.

Another Flickr picture, this time from Jan2eke, a photographer in Holland who has these two ridiculous bearded collies.  They are the most entertaining dogs, named Moos and Shanny, and it's worth looking through her photoblog here.

She also has two bunnies!
