I fixed it

I was somewhat satisfied with this shot before, and thought I’d done enough to show the texture and pop the blue.

But then I processed it again using Topaz Clarity. I’m liking this a lot more. How about you?

New York City: The Eye of the Beholder

Seen at the Museum of Modern Art.

And that, my friends is the end of my posts of our travels to Washington, D.C. and New York City. I may throw another one or two photographs up, if the mood strikes me, but as MoMA was our last main stop on Day Three, aside from the NBC Studios tour where photography was strictly forbidden, I believe I have ridden this horse as far as she can go.

If you wish to see more of my photos from our trip, you can view them at my SmugMug gallery. (Link)

New York City: While waiting for the cruise . . .

I wandered around Pier 83.

Morning conversation.

Fisherman.

At the Dog Park.

An absent-minded touch.

Dainties.

New York City: Uptown

Radio City Music Hall

Rockefeller Center

Amazing Art Deco adorns the buildings inside and out.

5th Avenue

I can’t afford to shop here. Saks 5th Avenue.

Or here. I loved this window with all the mirrors to capture the street activity. Of course I waited for pedestrians to appear in the mirrors!

I must admit to lusting after one of these.

I think she’s doing a bit of lusting too.

Near the Museum of Modern Art

Workers hang high above the street.

One of many, many food wagons in the city.

Taking a call. This just screamed “Shoot me!” – Honestly, I couldn’t have planned it better.

Resting

Battery Park, New York City.

New York City: Attention must be paid

I hesitated before publishing these photographs, but I felt it would be dishonest not to show you that I saw this side of New York as well. To not show you is to continue to make them invisible.

These are the only photos I took of street people, though I saw many others like them (and far worse) throughout the city. This is our collective failure.
