This afternoon I took a leisurely stroll through Central Park from East 93rd St. to West 72nd St. The day was cloudy and cold, but oh, what a wonderful way to spend the afternoon!

ooh. I like the first one. The art deco Petronis Towers are cool, too. What is that building?

The building across from the reservoir is The Eldorado (http://www.nyc-architecture.com/UWS/UWS038.htm). The one in the last picture is the San Remo (http://www.thecityreview.com/uws/cpw/cpw145.html).

These look great. I love going to Belvedere Castle to take in that view.

I didn't stay long today, but it is beautiful up there. I hadn't been up there in a couple of years and just could not resist!

Thankee much.

I am trying, really trying, to look at the grey winter scenery with the eye of a photographer. There isn't much in the way of color, but there is still something there...I just haven't put my finger on it, yet. Maybe it's more about texture than color for this season.

Mmmm. Very nice. I'm glad you're stepping out to promote your art commercially -- I like the idea of sharing it with people who will get pleasure from it.

Thank you. I am a little apprehensive, because promoting my art (even just posting it here) means inviting criticism. But hiding it won't get me where I want to be in the long run.

I wasn't going to photograph this, but the roses made me do a double-take...I turned around, came back, and snapped three times to get this one.

I really like that one too, I love how the petals are scattered.
