Thanks to all who attended, and thanks Mother Nature for waiting a week before creating a blizzard in the northeast! (and thank you Pedro for the 'people' photos: Kat and Anita; crowd scene; Kat, Donovan, Judith, and Anita)

Bryant Park fountain

an unusual occurrence, even in January in the Northeast 

how pretty is this?  Bryant Park fountain on a winter's day

this would be most welcome in summer! snow cone, anyone?

A lovely sight on a frigid day in midtown, the fountain in Bryant Park is partially frozen but still running.

historic neighborhood

interesting building entrance

view of lower Manhattan from the Brooklyn Heights Promenade

Just a tiny taste of the area, and the Promenade, the East River and the density of lower Manhattan.

Grand Central Terminal - 100 year anniversary

this is a rather light crowd for such a busy terminal

special effects increase the chaos

even more chaotic . . .

Scaffold City - I Love NY but I Hate Scaffolding!

double exposure photo adds to the congestion of scaffolding

Lady Liberty behind bars

I Love New York - but I hate scaffolding!! It's everywhere and seems to grow overnight. I took some photos of this fake Liberty, went back a week later to take some film shots, and found it behind bars with scaffolding that wrapped around the block. Let's see how many months before it's removed.
