I’d been using Instagram as a personal account for my PiercingKen.com site for a few months before I decided to have one for the Metal website and it’s really a lot of fun for me since its an immediate glimpse into what I am seeing at the very second for the most part. Now while there are less than the PM.com one, the full tally is about 761 photos. Thanks to the fun website link which you will find at the end of this narrative, I was able to learn what my “9” most popular posted images were in 2015 and I wanted to share that with you below. Here is the graphic of those nine images.
The selections made me smile as it featured my beloved felines along with my home stomping grounds of Brooklyn and a few food related things. All of them a part of my personal world much like this blog itself. As with my PiercingMetal Instagram account, all of the items you see here are 100% original content and I’d have it no other way. If you click this image above you will be brought to our official account and I hope you choose to give it a follow and start perusing the images that have come before. Your click will help decide the ones that win this sort of thing when we get to the end of this year in another 362 days. I hope you enjoy it and know that I always appreciate the support. I’m looking to making this a productive year on PiercingKen and all its socials. Let’s do this together.

Today marks the 50th anniversary of the opening of the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge that spans from Bay Ridge, Brooklyn over to Staten Island across the Narrows tidal strait. As an almost lifelong resident of Bay Ridge and being in a close enough proximity to where the bridge actually is, I regularly find myself down on the Shore Promenade walking around with my camera snagging visuals for all of my readers to enjoy. What I did with this particular post for the anniversary was to cull together a whole lot of shots from different points in time and from different angles for your maximum pleasure. I’ll make note when I can but for the most part its more fun to let your imagination run with you.

It was a brutally hot day today but I went out walking just the same to get some exercise and see what I might see for my idea bank. When I reached Shore Road’s Promenade, I glanced up and saw some men working on the bridge and it was a job that clearly had me saying “Yikes” aloud for all to hear. As you can see in this photo, its a small crane of some kind and the workers are in a basket working below the span of the bridge. Sounds simple enough right?
Anyways, I tried to get a little closer with my zoom, but didn’t see the shot properly and only got “so much” closer. I apologize. The sun was beating down on me at the time and I could barely see the image on the little screen on my sidearm. Oh and that is what I call my Cybershot camera in case you were wondering. He is the perfect little travel companion.
So what makes me view this particular job as “Yikes”……well, I think that the next shot kind of illustrates where my thought process was coming from. Can you still see the little crane? You can’t? Alright well, if you look from the left of the image its about four sections over so look very, very carefully. That’s a pretty steep drop from where I am looking. Be careful guys.
As I close up this little piece, I have to admit that I love this bridge and think that perhaps I will come up with some other photos that feature it from some different angles. You’d like that right?
