Ah, the serenity ...

Walking through Prospect Park in the late afternoon and it was a hive of activity .... baseball practice, runners, bike riders, dog walkers and children using up all the excess energy from a day constrained in the classroom. It was also the opening night of Celebrate Brooklyn, a 3 month outdoor performing arts festival so there were long queues of people waiting for the free opening night concert, and having picnics before it started (we have tickets to watch Jack Johnson, then Nick Cave, but this may be a later blip).

Amongst all the ruckus, I found this man sitting in the middle of a meadow, playing the guitar quietly to himself. A moment of solitude amongst the masses.
