Going Up
This country mouse was off to the big city last weekend. Here I am looking up at the base of the Bloomberg Building in NYC. We went to Le Cirque restaurant nearby and had a wonderful dinner with Elenka's sister Judy, brother-in-law Anthony, their daughter Daniella and her boyfriend, Chris. Later, we wandered the streets of Manhattan, caught some 'sights' in Times Square, and as the city was beginning to unfold for the night, we grabbed a bus back to Jersey. For this country mouse, I survived my very non- frightening visit to the big city. Elenka wasn't so lucky though. Her cellphone was lost somewhere among those towering granite edifices.
"I am currently unable to take your call, please leave your message after the beep"
Someone, please, my name, address and Birdman's phone number was on the phone. Anyone????
ReplyDeleteBirdman, This is a terrific photo; one of your best, I think. Not so good for Elenka to have lost her phone, but don't lose faith. DH lost his in a gas station in Santa Fe once, and I got a call on my cellphone from the guy who found it. Not only notified us, but met us halfway to deliver the goods. Got a handsome reward, too. Hope your loss turns out as well. Keep us posted!!
ReplyDeleteLove the photo and angle . . .but ack about Elenka's phone. Hope it turns up today!
ReplyDeleteLove the angle on this one! It always pays to look up!
ReplyDeleteawww. sorry for elenka!
ReplyDeletelove this shot, though!
A day in NY! a dream!
ReplyDeleteExcept for Elenka, I'm so sorry!
Perspective, cropping and sharpness are just perfect. Great shot, Birdman!
ReplyDeleteSuper shot!
ReplyDeleteFantastic angle!
ReplyDeleteGreat shot! Well done! I love the sweep of the glass wall at the bottom.
ReplyDeleteTerrific composition, Birdman, with the horizontals above, the fading verticals listing toward the top and the swirl don below. All in glass. Nice capture. (Sorry about Elenka's phone . . . these days our phones contain so much information about our lives, that it is a nasty mix of inconvenience and fear when one is lost.)
ReplyDeleteI would love to see the big city one day.
ReplyDeleteWonderful visual movement in this photo.
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear about the cell phone. That really is a dreaded event. I love this photo. Dinner at Le Cirque? Very nice indeed.
ReplyDeleteThe photo: sci fi, right here, right now! bummer about the phone...
