I found this on the Brooklyn Museum blog.

I am very excited that Patrick Amsellem, curator of photography, is working  with us on a web project in conjunction with the Goodbye Coney Island?  exhibition he curated in the Luce Visible Storage-Study Center.  We have created a Goodbye Coney Island? Flickr group
which photographers can join and submit their best photo of Coney
Island. From this pool Patrick will select four photos to feature in
his posts on our blog throughout the run of the show.

This idea came about because the other day I joined Patrick for a discussion of Goodbye Coney Island?
and he spoke about the popularity of Coney Island throughout the years
as a subject for both American and International photographers. I am a
casual photographer, and his comment reminded me how much I enjoy going
to Coney Island to take pictures with my Polaroid, Holga and digital
cameras. Every time I am there I see countless other photographers
strolling the boardwalk in search of the perfect shot to capture the
Coney Island’s essence. What a better way to pay homage to this fabled
part of New York, I thought, than to engage some of the photographers
in our community in conjunction with this exhibition of more than fifty
photographs from the Brooklyn Museum’s holdings that traces its
evolution over the past 125 years. We look forward to seeing the
photographs everyone will choose to post!
