February means Valentine's Day. I was pretty indifferent about the "holiday" this year - it came, it went. Anyway, to celebrate the end of the Month of Love, I would like to take this opportunity to parade for you a little more of my ongoing affair with The City. It may be argued that Manhattan is the heart of New York City, but the Subway lines are the veins and arteries that keep all five boroughs pumping. So here are a few photos I've snapped around town and underground lately. I hope you love them, and I hope you picked up some discounted surplus chocolates this past week, too.
The pretty, tiled murals are a nice contrast to the dirty subway platforms.
People add their own art to the subway stations, including stickers...
... and graffiti ...
No, this last set isn't on the subway, but the walk home from my subway station one snowy night.
