Puppet Show


This was an impromptu puppet show in front of the Met this past weekend. I'm not sure what the show was, though at one point I think they were acting out a scene from Titanic. I always enjoy watching the street performers. Have a nice weekend!

Still Green

This is a photo I took last weekend looking over Central Park. As you can see, there aren't many leaves that are changing colors yet. I guess the long-lasting summer weather has something to do with it. Luckily, the weather has been feeling more fall-like the last few days. Hopefully we'll have some pretty leaves soon!

Met Roof


I visited the roof of the Metropolitan Museum this weekend and this is one of the photos I took. The sculpture you see reflected on the right is part of the Frank Stella exhibit there. The roof features some beautiful views of Manhattan!

Jeannette 1-5

Today I'm showing a shot from the Museum of Modern Art of five "Jeannettes" by Henri Matisse. I don't really know who Jeannette was, but I think she was one of his favorite models. Whoever she was, she certainly had an interesting face.

Katz's Deli


Here's a picture today of the sign outside Katz's deli. It's a classic New York style deli on the Lower East Side. I took this photo a while back when I was practicing some night shots. I wish I had an inside picture to show you. I love the food there!

Las Vegas (4 of 4)


And for the final installment of the Las Vegas trip, New York, NY, including the Statue of Liberty, Grand Central Station and the Empire State Building. We had a terrific time there! Enjoy the weekend and see you Monday!

Las Vegas (3 of 4)


Today I'm showing a picture from the Venetian Hotel. (This one probably doesn't look as similar to the real thing as the Eiffel Tower yesterday.) I loved this hotel though. It even had a canal and singing gondoliers - very over-the-top, but I love that kind of stuff!

Las Vegas (2 of 4)


Now we are in Paris! No, still Las Vegas at the Paris Casino which has an Eiffel Tower, an Arc de Triomphe and an Opera House. The Eiffel Tower has a great view from the top and it was surprisingly realistic. We had a lot of fun there!!

Las Vegas (1 of 4)


Since I'm completely out of New York photos, I thought I would show you a few pictures from my trip to Las Vegas last weekend. This is a photo of the fountains at the Bellagio Hotel. They were quite spectacular in person! I was very impressed. (I promise to try and catch up on some New York pictures this week.)

Cobblestones


I always like to find streets with the old cobblestones. This one was near New York University. Have a nice week!
