Taking only photographs – leaving only footprints
After the trip up the Empire State Building I did a little shopping around Macy’s and Dr. Jay’s. I then took the subway back to the YMCA. That evening a few of us walked back to 5th ave to the Rockafeller Centre. This recently opened (October 2005) a viewing platform at the top of the building which is open till 11pm at night so gives great views from the 70th floor. As you can see in the photo I took below.
Finally after a long journey I arrived at the hostel (west side YMCA) I was staying at for around 3pm. We walked down Broadway to Time Square and went to Ellen’s Stardust Diner for a lovely three course meal. Took loads of photographs of Time Square as the sun went down of New York City.
So I was walking past the Town Hall in Manchester tonight on my way to the AMC cinema. I liked the previous night photo of Manchester so much I thought I would take another. This time I rested the camera on a letter box to keep it steady. Not as good as the Piccadilly Gardens photo but I still think it is worth sharing.
So I am sat here at my desk, staring out of the window and watching another day turn to night. It has been clear blue skies all day and I love the way this huge tree the other side of my road looks, especially at dusk. The image below has been resized and cropped for the Internet but the colour and contrast is what the camera captured. I am very happy with it.
