Favorite moments: My park bench, New York

Definitely one of my fav parks in New York, Washington Square Park. It’s just great sitting on those large benches and watching the people, the street artists having a good time. Of course the Arch totally completes it …such a beautiful one and also well known thanks to the awesome movie I Am Legend (luckily without the zombies :P).

To be honest the park is nice but misses some good surrounding stores and bars. So for me the next logical step was to hit the Fifth Avenue amd head towards the Empire.

New York streets: Reflecting lights

New York really is a beautiful city and especially at night. I just loved wandering around at night, alone with my camera and my thoughts. Without even realizing I walked block after block after block. One thing I, as a photographer, really like in this city is the reflecting lights in the water on the streets …it doubles the light and colours of this amazing city. It just gives the buildings that nice color scheme at night.

Details of New York …a category I decided to add to the blog so I can share some details of New York with you all. I find it such a beautiful city with character.

So here is the first post. Even though you don’t see any building, flags or signs you still see or associate this photograph with New York. I think the street view of New York is unique, with its well known yellow cabs, marking on the streets, buildings etc. In the upcoming posts I’ll share more details of New York through my viewfinder.
