Coney Island, 1905. Click through to the large version, and you can see people in evening dress, shimmering between the lights.

We'll take a trip up to the moon
For that is the place for a lark
So meet me down at Luna, Lena
Down at Luna Park

Totally Galvanica.

That's magical looking - otherworldly.

What an amazing picture!! Such phenomenal clarity and such a beautiful "other world" feel about it. I love it! And is that a boxing ring or a circus ring in the middle?? It looks more like a boxing ring to me which is such a hoot with all the fancy dressed folks!

Thanks for sharing!

The, um... "Color scheme" (the way the brightness is laid out and such) of that picture is very neat. Sort of reminds me of an X-ray picture.

X-ray of a town?

Dawn and I were greatly impressed with this one. Dawn says Luna Park has been a parking lot for a very long time. Just amazing.

I too go and poke around on Shorpy from time to time, because it's full of good stuff. I haven't seen this one though. It's amazing! Looks like infrared film to me, and makes me want to see if I can get my grubby little paws on some. Its cool stuff.
