Five Points

For photography our professor has taken us to some great places around Manhattan and in the surrounding burrows. Last monday we went to a place in Queens called Five Points. Five points is a factory where graffiti is legal with a permit. It was pretty amazing. I took a lot of photos so it was hard to choose just a few.

We were supposed to do portraits of our classmates. This is my friend Dana. She is from Seattle.

Wow, that place is really interesting. The kind of place that would freak me out in NY. Lets not go there in December, k? Does the factory run? Brad wants to know if it is a meth lab factory, or maybe a rat producing factory.

I will make a note of that Jenni. We will only go to the pretty and sanitary places. There were people working at this factory and it smelled like cinnamon rolls the whole time we were there. It think that might be from the factory next to it. The most likely product is rats.
