New York City… day 2… part 5… wait, this is inside a museum?

Posted on November 19, 2019 by pouringmyartout

Yes it is. On the top floor of the New York Metropolitan Museum of Art there is a big room. It is lit by a big skylight. If I had a bigger house, I would totally do this in it. … Continue reading →

Make mine a Manhattan, on the rocks, and make it extra wiggly… which, I suppose, would be shaken, and not stirred… the final chapter…

Posted on November 12, 2019 by pouringmyartout

Don’t get too excited. When I say ‘final chapter’, I mean just of the wiggly pictures I took on the first night of our 3-and-a-half-day adventure in New York, standing by the East River and overlooking Manhattan across the river. … Continue reading →

Once again, my title is too clever by half. Obviously, these are just more of those photos I take when the lighting is low, and the shutter stays open longer, and I wiggle the camera around trying to get interesting … Continue reading →

New York City… day 1… part 13… and yes, I am luring you in with a picture of Lady Liberty, and then will make you look at more photos of the Brooklyn Bridge, but hey, it is all lit up now, and I swear, this will be the last post with photos of the bridge… sort of… except for… well… never mind…

There she is, calling you, lighting the way to… More pictures of that dang bridge. But look, it is getting dark. The lights are coming on. The bridge has adorned herself in sparkling jewels. Manhattan is lit up like a … Continue reading →

New York City… day 1… part 12… Manhattan, as seen across the East River from Brooklyn… and yes, there might be some more pictures of the Brooklyn Bridge too. What am I supposed to do, not make you look at them? And I threw in a couple of the Statue of Liberty and some boats, so just look at those if you are tired of the bridge…

New York City… day 1… part 10… The Brooklyn Bridge…

Posted on November 7, 2019 by pouringmyartout

Okay, back to my recent adventures in New York City. My daughter and son-in-law live not to far from the bridge. No, that isn’t a bunch of dead Matadors who had a run-in with that metal bull from Wall Street, … Continue reading →

I hope you are enjoying this, because we are now almost up to lunch time on the first of our three-and-a-half day whirlwind visit to New York City. Look, it’s the Wall Street Bull, over there, behind that table covered … Continue reading →

New York City… day 1… part 5… 9-11 ground zero…

Posted on November 3, 2019 by pouringmyartout

The new World Trade Center Tower is amazing. When you look up at it from below, and are standing close to it, it seems like a highway that disappears into the sky. Supposedly, it was designed that way.  There it … Continue reading →

New York City… day 1… part 4… the wounded but still-strong heart of the city…

Posted on November 2, 2019 by pouringmyartout

The reflecting pool, carved on the inside with the names of the victims of 9-11, built in the footprint of one of the two towers. There are two pools. It is moving and heartbreaking. But I did skip ahead a … Continue reading →
