year of the dog that bit you

chinese new year in chinatown, new york, 2006.

theatrical chinese make-up, lunar new year flower market, columbus park:


red lanterns, mott street:


chinese dragons, mulberry street:



shop owner trying to drum up business:


white chicks, frontin' on mott street:


toursits, trying to figure out confetti-firing "fireworks":


the lady in this picture had clothed her shi-tzus in "traditional" chinese garb, and popped a squat in the middle of the street so people could take pictures of her pups. i happily obliged her both despite and because at one point, a five year old boy tried to pet one of her dogs, and she totally screamed him to move because people were taking pictures of her dogs.






as a general rule, i hate children, but these were kinda too adorable to ignore:














there was a ton of confetti flying around:


i feel bad for whoever has to clean it all up:


gung hay fat choy, y'all!
