To The End of Love
Coney Island - Where one can "dance to the end of love". What ever that means.
Got to love Coney Island. It is everything I thought it would be. A little tacky, lots of people (every type you could ever want to see) and very 'bad for you' food. Nathan's hot dogs taste just like a hot dog - nothing special. But when in Rome...
I found this scene in a "back alleys". I feel sorry for Miss Coney Island and the Alive Chimpanzee. No one was paying them any attention. I never found out what this group found so interesting.
The beach was huge, and empty. As well it should have been at 10:30 in the morning. The ones who got prime spots most likely were nursing a bad burn the next morning.
This is one place that I need to return. So many people, so many photo opportunities.

A Quick Diversion
On the subject of "What I would never want to be when I grow up"
No it's not the over-weight guy on the left or the girl in tight shorts on the right...
It's the guy who plays the "human target" in this game on Coney Island. For $3 you get five shots. Yes, it's only paint, but it's the thought that counts. And to be called a "freak" no less.
I didn't see what they made him wear (I'm assuming it was a he). I waited, but no one showed up to take a shot. I should have been the first. Hard to take photos and shoot at the same time though.
Please excuse the slight diversion...
