Dead Horse Bay

As spring began to say its hellos, a group of us made our way down to Dead Horse Bay: an abandoned swath of Jamaica Bay shorefront that missed the memo 50 years ago about cleaning itself up.  Although the excursion was a fun time, the biggest surprise to me was how easy it was to rent a car and drive around the city.

The remaining refuse on the beach allegedly washed up circa 1950.

Will post the B&W once I get around to developing.  These were shot on Ektar 100 and processed at CVS (not Dwaynes).  The color isn't as rich as I hoped, and I feel like the grain of 400 is something that I generally like to incorporate into my aesthetic.
