The wonderful photographer Sonja Shield posts this gem in her flickr photostream, which Gowanus Lounge proudly uses to kick off the Outdoor Living Series. She calls this photo “the man who took the indoors out,” thanking writer and illustrator Arnold Lobel for the inspiration. Shield has an excellent Gowanus photo set that features some superb shots of GL’s favorite local body of water.
Gowanus Lounge has been busy combing the streets as well for examples of La Vita al Fresco, amazed at both the variety and quantity of such images that are available like this street sofa in Williamsburg we called “Open Air Living.”
