About this ebook

This collection of pictures, poems, and art is my photography/art statement on OUR Coney Island (mid to late 20s age folks). Picking up after the closing of Astroland amusement park (the last full out park still standing in CI, which is now the re-vamped Luna Park, a throw back to the original circa. early 1900s) into the opening of 2010/2011 Luna Park/Scream Zone and The Wonder Wheel's 90th birthday. This collection shows Coney Island from 2008 to 2011.It's a gritty little Coney now, but with all the classics still alive. The circus, vaudeville, freak shows, and burlesque. Also of-course: The Cyclone, Mermaid Day, The Forth of July & Easter Sunday. Coney is STILL the hot-spot summer destination/family tradition..... with a Hot Dog in one hand, El-dorado arcade tokens, and strong Pina Colada in the other!!!!Coney Island will never lose its attraction and shine. Like a giant magnet pulling those curious and somewhat nervous people in, and they stay here. Once they sense the creativity, regardless if they are an artist or not, Coney will draw it out of them. An inspiration, A muse to creative, to express yourself, to be a little crazy because... It's normal here, and that in itself, will never go out of vogue. Coney Island will keep constantly changing and redeveloping, Yes. but it's been doin' that from the beginning. However, there is something here that can never be torn down nor changed. It's a magical place yet, it ain't Disneyland!
