No tripod, no DSLR, just a P&S in the dark.

Like the bears but it looks a bit out of focus/blurred, camera shake from a slow shutter speed??

The flowers and toys are a sorrowful reminder of the children lost - Similar to the displays at the site of flight 93 in Pennsylvania.

On a more cheerful note : I am surprised the security people were not chasing you away with your clandestine camera:D

Not taken with a tripod or a good camera. I just steadied the camera against a lamp post. But I could feel vibrations (subway?) and I new it wouldn't come out sharp.

I see two - 2 - security cameras in your image - You are on their files now - they will be watching you......... Do you speak Russian? Can you say gulag?

I'll see if I can find some of the images I took that people spontaneously left at the scene of the crash of flight 93. Very moving. My heart goes out to the victims families in Russia.
