Not one of my pics, but one I really like. Coney Island certainly has a nostalgic feel to it and this image captures that beautifully.
What I didn't know, until recently, is that the name comes from the old Dutch 'Conyne Eylandt', which means 'Rabbit Island'. Apparently this peninsula, which used to be an island, had an abundance of rabbits and rabbit hunting continued till the resort development started.
