Celebrating 4th of July in Central Park
Back in February 2010, we had one of those rare days with snow in Manhattan, which resulted in these nice images below. Needless to say that by next day all that white beauty was gone…
More images from Much Ado About Nothing, preformed by Island Shakespeare on Roosevelt Island, starting tonight. I took those images during the last fully costumed rehearsal. If you live in New York, don’t miss this performance. If not, enjoy my images.
Today I celebrate one month since I started this blog, and I believe the statistics so far are very good. My images have been seen on all continents, and I like how the list of countries grows slowly. Therefore I will keep posting more images from New York, my home for the last 18 years. Besides, I was able to discover interesting blogs of the people who follow me or like my photography, and that is a nice experience too. So keep visiting my blog frequently, to enjoy more photos to come.
Upper West side is home to an important landmark, the St John the Divine Cathedral. According to Wikipedia, this is the fourth largest Christian church in the world.
Images from last year’s Easter Hat parade on 5th Avenue
Roosevelt Island, one of the best kept secrets of Manhattan, is technically a part of it, but in the same time is totally independent and separate. Every year, different activities are organized here, one of them being Fall for Arts. Last year , this program included , among other things, a presentation of Oedipus Rex by an all male cast.
One Sunday afternoon early this spring, we took a walk through the city, ending at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Part of the “museum mile” (as the name says, a mile of 5th Ave in Manhattan, full of museums) the Metropolitan Museum of Art is one of the biggest museums of the world. Thousands of tourists and locals (like us) visit this every day. The place is huge, so it’s good idea to focus on a small section per visit, and come back for more next time. So we settled on the Greek and Roman Art gallery, and the result of our visit can be seen below.
