Park Slope Halloween 2019
Pictures taken in Park Slope (Brooklyn) on Halloween afternoon and evening 2019, including the 33rd Annual Park Slope Halloween Parade. The forecast was for light rain, but it ended up warm with no rain. This is good, as there were no coats over the costumes. And no sun to mess up the exposure. The parade was lightly attended this year. Hence few pictures from then.
