Isn’t it amazing? I snapped these shots of water falling at several locations in Brooklyn today. Oh, and also, Olafur Eliasson’s Waterfalls were switched on.

As soon as I started riding over there it started pouring. As the rain pelted my face, I thought wow, this must be exactly what it feels like under the Brooklyn Bridge!

A new park opened, too, to get people even more pumped for water-watching. Perhaps the rain was all part of the city’s promotional plan?

From what I could gather here, they were using hay bales as planters. It looked like they cut holes out of the hay and dropped soil in with the plants. But why? It’s a great idea but I’m guessing there’s more thought behind it than that. Do tell!
