Brooklyn Shadow
From a sidewalk in Greenpoint, Brooklyn...Shadows obey no fences. No, they and our eyes have a lot of fun instead.

World Financial Center 2
As a follow-up to yesterday's post, I trekked again to the banks of the mighty Hudson River. Thankfully, a bit of yesterday's snow remained atop the buildings around the World Financial Center.

Snow Scrapers
CAUTION: Snow Scrapers! Here, you see "snow-capped" Manhattan buildings near the World Trade Center site, as seen from the other side of the Hudson River in Jersey City.
As I like to say, you get a great look at Manhattan, when you cross one of the rivers. "You gotta leave the city to see the city."
Cheers to easy access to great views!

Times Square Panes
I like when a composition I really, really enjoy has an exclamation point in it, whether literally or with shapes (as seen above on the lower left). Whether or not that blesses me or the photo remains to be seen. However, I do feel blessed for having seen the scene in the first place.

Times Square
The sky above Times Square but from a "side street", so you don't really recognize the place.

Valentine
One other doggie photo for you from the 132nd Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show...a fine example of a Yorkshire Terrier, to be sure!
Happy Valentine's Day!

Dog Show
Hey, dread! My favorite dog backstage did not come from Jamaica but he loved the man in the kilt.
[132nd Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show at Madison Square Garden]
You know how they say owners and dogs tend to look alike?

Look Up
You won't always catch a glimpse of the Empire State Building but looking up usually gets rewarded here. Don't block the sidewalk, though, please.

A Rose
(i have none)
"don't cry dear violet
you may take mine"
"o how how how
could i ever wear it now
when the boy who gave it to
you is the tallest of the boys"
"he'll give me another
if i let him kiss me twice
but my lover has a brother
who is good and kind to all"
"o no no no
let the roses come and go
for kindness and goodness do
not make a fellow tall"
lily has a rose
no rose i've
and losing's less than winning(but
love is more than love)
[all apologies to e.e. cummings - lily has a rose ]

Lunch Time
Looks like as good a place as any to eat, eh? I came across this sidewalk scene in the TriBeCa section of Manhattan.
By the way: Happy Chinese New Year!

Morris Canal
Here we see Manhattan reflected in the Hudson River at the mouth of the former Morris Canal in Jersey City, a forgotten but important part of New Jersey history.

The Winners!
NYC Mayor Bloomberg holds the Super Bowl trophy as MVP Eli Manning (right) enjoys the moment and defensive hero Michael Strahan (behind the Mayor) shoots some video during the Giants victory parade up the Canyon of Heroes.
Calm Before
Calm before the storm...I took this one in the afternoon on Sunday, before the Super Bowl--Super Bowl 42, or "Super Bowl XLII" for you worshippers of all things Roman. Here we see lower Manhattan reflected on the Hudson River. A beautiful day, to be sure...
Today, in honor of their win in The Big Game, the NFL champion Giants will enjoy a parade up the Canyon of Heroes (Broadway), also in lower Manhattan. If you're lucky enough, I'll have something to show you later. Stay tuned...

Shadows and Tall Trees
Who calls me inside
Are the leaves on the trees
Just living disguise
I walk sweet rain tragicomedy
I'll walk home again
to the street melody
But I know, oh no
Shadows and tall trees
[all aplogies to U2, SHADOWS AND TALL TREES]
