When the sky has no color. That's what winter looks like to me. Thanks for all the comments! Penny Street

This is a wonderful shot. The serenity of the approaching winter is captured very well. ~dtallakson

thanks. Penny Street

Lovely shot Penny. I guess that the sound of the cicadas had faltered and died by this time (sorry, a Zen reference). I like the feeling of the dark light, it's as though you can feel winter approaching. ~ keithinmelbourne

Seems familiar but still works. I wonder what Brent's camera would do for this kind of detail. -tv

Zen. Totally.

LOL @ Rod and Penny! ~Lydia

thanks for the comments. I walk around and walk around and always wind up liking this park the best for photos.
Yes, Mary Anne this was taken on 41st Street looking toward Sixth Ave (caddy corner across Bryant Park)
Rod - I was thinking somehat the same thing actually, well not the swap part, but I guess I'm envious of your girly shots.

Now this seems more zen to me- a bit of subtle nature amongst the looming towers of power.

I really like this one Penny! Love the outline of the trees against the simple geometric lines of the buildings - nice colors too! :-) CJ

I love the richness of colors here, Penny, as well as the patterns formed by the tree branches. Is this near Bryant Park?

this looks beautiful - specially the lattice work created by the naked branches - Debi

This is excellent Penny, it just works so well. I luv how this looks especially the graduation from dark to light. I think we should swap picys before posting so you can post me girly shots & I can post these manly picys.

This one is my favorite Penny. The little spots of remaining leaves all over the place adding noise/texture to the buildings is excellent. Almost winter? It's well below freezing this morning with about 6 inches of snow on the ground here in Denver this morning. -Doug

Nature and man reaching for the sky.
The buildings look as if they are threatening the few remaining trees.
