Wheat field


Obviously not a shot from NYC! This is a photo from when I was in PA this summer. I have no idea what type of plant (or weed!) that is in the foreground. Have a good weekend!

Dancers

An impromptu or perhaps not so impromptu dance performance seen recently on a plaza at Lincoln Center. I'm not sure who the dancers were. They seemed to be in their own little world.

Storm Clouds

View from the bus, returning from a trip outside the city recently....a big storm was approaching. It probably would have been a better shot if not taken through a window!

Laundry

Sorry folks for the hiatus! I moved apartments last month and have been crazy busy! I'm trying to start posting again. May have to take another break when I run out of photos. Hope the summer has been going well for you all. This is a shot of some windows in the Inwood section of northern Manhattan, and a very energy efficient way to do the laundry.

Close up

...and a closeup view of some of the cherubs on the facade of the Alwyn Court on West 58th Street.

Alwyn Court

I've always enjoyed looking at the intricate stone work on this building, the Alwyn Court on 7th Avenue in midtown Manhattan. The ground floor of the building houses Petrossian the restaurant known for it's caviar.

Christmas in June

These figures seem to grace the window of this building in Chelsea (near Madison Square Park) year round. I think the store must sell Christmas decorations but I couldn't find any info. Maybe their outfits will make us remember winter on a warm summer day.

Cupola

This building with a golden cupola on Fifth Avenue near the flatiron building has always interested me. I'd love to take a peek inside! Do you see the little statue? That's part of the exhibition of sculptures by artist Antony Gormley in and around Madison Square Park.

Doorway


This doorway was in a very nice neighborhood so I'm not sure if it's meant to be artistic perhaps. Anyway it caught my eye. Have a great weekend!
