NYC Street
Wandering the streets of NYC is always so engaging with the colors, structures, shadows and people.
I Miss NYC
Here is one of my favorite places which closed in 2016 but apparently lives on as a web based mail order deli.
More Wandering
To just wander the streets of NYC is one of my greatest pleasures.
The Cosmic Diner
There are many gem-like places to eat in NYC, some elegant and fancy and others plain but with excellent food. We found that our “regular ” meals were best taken at the Cosmic Diner. The food is great there, the service excellent and the prices reasonable. Try it when you are in NYC.
The Cloisters, Some Artifacts
The religious artifacts in the Cloisters collection are wonderful works of art. One can cruise through for a quick round of enjoyment or stand in front of one piece for hours. Either way is good.
The Met’s Front Steps
I love just hanging around someplace on the Met’s front steps and watch the world go by. The buildings and the steps provide a perfect stage.
Light, Shadows and Visions
This group of images has contrasts, forms and occasionally odd juxtapositions which black and white enhances.
Spaces
The first three images are NYC spaces with interesting mirrors, movement and activities.The forth image is from Owings, SC in back of an abandoned commercial building. It has a feeling of calmness and shows a quit beauty
Rubin Museum of Himalayan Art
The Rubin Museum in NYC is a place to see objects of Himalayan art beautifully curated and exhibited. After we wandered around the exhibits, I was drawn to the stairway and just waited around for thins to happen and subtly they did. The curves, patterns, and light and shadow balances were most inviting.
More Museum of the City of New York
The Museum of the City of New York is a great museum which offers excellent exhibits including a great picture journey of NYC from the earliest days when inhabited by the Lenni Lenape indians to the present. I have seen these for other cities and this is the best. The is a display of lights as one enters which is excellent and changes as you walk around it and a steep stairway with posters. The statue is one of two on the facade. This one is Dewitt Clinton and the other is Alexander Hamilton.
