Aren't these amazing photos of the Gowanus Canal and the surface of its polluted waters? They were taken by photographer Jose Gaytan just last week-end. In an email to me, he wrote:
"Attached are 2 images that I shot on Sunday. The water levels are high and there is lots of stuff happening on the surface."
Jose has been taking photos along the shores of the Gowanus Canal for a long time now. An exhibit of his work, called "The Gowanus: Brooklyn In Transition" is currently being shown at the Brooklyn Public Library at Grand Army Plaza through August 29th.

He is continuing with the project. Currently, he is photographing residents and artists of the Gowanus area.
He writes: " I would like to do a series of panoramic portraits of Gowanus artists. If you or anyone you know would be interested in a sitting, please contact me."
So how about it? Are you a Gowanus Canal resident and/or artist? Do you want Jose to take your photos?
You can send him an email through his web site here.
