Photo of the Day (9.20.09)

Gadling first wrote about the secret pleasures of New York City's Coney Island back in May. Brooklyn's very own quirky seaside amusement area boasts a vintage rollercoaster, beach access and the annual Mermaid Parade. Coney Island is also a particularly "atmospheric" place, as Flickr user cmvoelkel captured in today's shot. The park's famous Wonder Wheel strikes an eerie silhouette against the fading pinks and purples of the setting sun. The shapes and textures of the fence and barbed wire add further visual intrigue.
