A shop with puppets as part of the the holiday stores in Bryant Park. Messing around with a Leica X1 camera courtesy of B&H for a scavenger hunt. Look at all those colorful faces.

Some simply amazing photos from some of 2011’s biggest events including the death of bin Laden, Occupy Wall Street (or other city) protestors, tsunamis, tornadoes, volcanoes and other natural disasters.
#28 is pretty questionable (death of Amy Winehouse related - bottle of rum in the picture - so not important).
#29 also weak sauce (east coast earthquake).
