This still life ended up in a pie...
Great hilarity climbing a tree for these!

A LA NOCHE
Noche fabricadora de embelecos,
loca, imaginativa, quimerista,
que muestras al que en ti su bien conquista,
los montes llanos y los mares secos;
habitadora de celebros huecos,
mecánica, filósofa, alquimista,
encubridora vil, lince sin vista,
espantadiza de tus mismos ecos;
la sombra, el miedo, el mal se te atribuya,
solícita, poeta, enferma, fría,
manos del bravo y pies del fugitivo.
Que vele o duerma, media vida es tuya;
si velo, te lo pago con el día,
y si duermo, no siento lo que vivo.
LOPE DE VEGA.
No es el edificio más alto de la Gran Manzana, pero posiblemente tenga una de las vistas más increíbles de Nueva York desde las alturas.

Coming back from a beautiful walk from Brooklyn to Manhattan, this pic was taken with a very small tripod which made me think (actually I had no choice) of this nice original angle that gives the picture all its dynamic.
Time's passing by and this pic is becoming my personal favorite in my stream!

There is something about New York that makes me think of night photography and long exposures..
although I have very little experience with this type of shooting......I was inspired by the city to give it a try! :)
This was taken on New Years Eve, everyone was in a hurry to get where they wanted to be for the night.
The NYPD had the Time Square corridor barricaded one street out on both sides for probably a mile.
Our hotel was between 45th and 46th streets on Broadway. They issued special room keys for New Years Eve which you had to present to the police before they would let you through the barricade.
You were only allowed to pass the barricade closest to your hotel, if your hotel was at 42nd street you weren't getting through at 45th street. Once through the first barricade, we passed another, before we got to our hotel.
All the doors into our hotel were locked (on New Years eve) except one and you had to line up and pass through a final police check point before entering the hotel; no special room key or evening pass...NO entry for you!!
There were lots of police and police dogs in our hotel.....I've never seen that many police in one central location before! Time Square was locked down and under control!
I the morning, you would never have known there was a "block party" of one million people! The Time Square corridor was swept up, washed down, barricades gone, for the most part...it was amazing.
My hat's off to the NYPD and the city of New York for keeping us all safe and throwing one hell of a party! :)
Happy {slider} Sunday everyone!

September 26, 2022 • Times Square • New York, NY
One can easily spend a whole day at Central Park as it occupies over a square mile (341 hectares). We were but two of its 25 million annual visitors.
The park was opened in 1859, completed in 1873 and designated a National Historic Landmark in 1963. Landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted and architect Calvert Vaux were the designers. While much of the park looks natural, it is in fact almost entirely landscaped.......Wikipedia
