- Description
-
The parking lot of Jacob Riis Park, a popular beach for New Yorkers in Queens, NY, was turned into a temporary dump site to store and recycle the garbage and debris which resulted from Hurricane Sandy.
I visited the site on Nov. 10, 2012 and created this panorama. (Canon 7D, 85mm Lens, 28 hand-held shots).
