Perfect Spring Day at Bethesda Terrace (Central Park)

A short clip (30s) from Central Park on a gorgeous spring (2023) day...

Here you see & hear a singer performing "Somewhere Over the Rainbow", while over her are the unique and stunning 19th-Century encaustic "Minton" tiles.

Article about these tiles: Central Park's Bethesda Terrace Arcade

Newlyweds and models pose for photographers nearby. Behind the arches is the famed "Angel of the Waters" Fountain.

Angel of the Waters

Reminded of a book whose cover my photograph appears on, "One Day's Perfect Weather" (Daniel Stern, 1999). On that is a little gazebo/boat stop on the Central Park Lake. You can see that image @ http://www.fenichel.com/cpboat.htm

Updated - my 25-yr-old guide to New York City.
I’ve re-visited and updated a long-running web project, which may be of interest either soon (Holiday time) or in the near future as traveling and tourism return increasingly towards "the good old days". Broadway, restaurants, music venues, clubs...

New York, New York

Should anyone be contemplating a visit: An extensive list of popular activities and places. Checked/rechecked, and seeing that many places begin with updates/policies on how things are going re: COVID. (Vaccination requirements at indoor venues, etc.)

First Encounter

A few steps from my door but after 6-7 weeks the simplest taste of spring and nature was invigorating. My first close encounter - after marveling at things like grass, trees, clouds, and blue sky - was this ubiquitous critter. I think the look s/he gave me was something like, "Why are all these humans in my park wearing masks?"

No. 1 of a series to come. Just a short walk along the edge of the island, but with camera and fresh air.
Ahh. My hour of exercise and fresh air before return to confinement. More images to follow. I saw flowers too! And masks....
