Another negative brought back from the forgotten. It was taken on the North Side in 1994. The crowd gathered and was photographed from the South Side, Twin Towers, Waterview, and Statute of Liberty. I liked the shadow cutting across the city – fewer people over there, too. It is one of my favorite negatives from back in the day of film.

Came across my binder of negatives from my first years of photography classes. A black and white image taken in 1993 from the top of the Empire State Building. It was never printed, glossed over it at the time on the contact sheet. Shot the negative today to digitize it.

A couple days in NYC, today we walked the island. Brooklyn Bridge, Freedom Tower, NYC Library, St Patrick’s Cathedral, Rockefeller Plaza. One photo, now sleep, more later.

Day One, New York City, done. I think we have walked 30 miles, well, maybe less, but I think the kids are wondering why we did not drive. They have never been here. Seems like they are enjoying it.  We had lunch in a nice Deli, went to the top of not only the Empire State Building but also Rockefeller Center. I prefer Top of Rock more than Empire.  I think the family will agree the people at Empire State are wound a bit too tight. Our lovely closet, I mean hotel room over looks a very cool looking cement wall and a pigeon.  And Danny is curious why everyone that actually does have a car insists on let us know they also have a horn.  This shot was taken at 30 Rock, the additional shots are from both Rock and Empire.  The reflection shot was Anna’s idea.  She set it up and took it… I was told I had to tell you all that.  Funny since she actually never reads my blog. Tomorrow we see a show, visit the Lego Store and check out Time Square.
