My inspiration for this post came from my dear, longtime blogging friend, Debbie @ Musings by an ND Domer's Mom, who is not only a gifted...
One of the many things I find fascinating about New York City is how different it looks day and night. Honestly, I find it visually beautiful, stimulating and inspiring any time of the day, however because I am more of a night person, I think it looks exceptionally beautiful after the sun goes down.
Whether looking up or down, the contrast of the city lights against the backdrop of a dark sky is breathtaking.
I remember when I first moved to Manhattan to attend acting school back in the 70's-80's. My friends and I would often visit the observation deck of the Empire State Building (which back then was only $5.00 admission) in the evenings. And no matter how many times we visited, we would continually be in awe of the spectacular view of New York City at night.
Last week while going through the photographs I store on Dropbox, I discovered that I saved quite a few photographs I had taken in New York City this year, and even some from last year. So I decided to post my favorites, sharing my best-loved city...day and night.
Please enjoy...
I spotted this photographer taking photographs on the steps of the New York City Public Library.
A white rose placed on the 9/11 Memorial.
The Bryant Park Studios, a 1901 Landmark building designed in the Beaux-Arts style.

West 34th Street rush hour traffic.
New York City at Night
These next two photographs are views from inside Central Park. I took them last October, when my brother Tom and I went to New York for three days.
Times Square
Office buildings along 6th Avenue
This final aerial (drone) shot was was taken by New York City photographer, Humza Deas, whose phenomenal talent I have just recently discovered online. In the future, I will be sharing a few of his videos - they are AMAZING!
This image perfectly fits my fantasy of being a bird and flying high above Manhattan at night, looking down at the magnificent light show below...
Have a spectacular weekend everyone!
