Ailsa’s “Travel Theme” this week is curves. Now when you see the curves of the day some of you are going to say:”Dude, you live in Morningside Heights, where is the travel”…
Well, I had to go several blocks north and east to get these shots. One definition of travel is “to go from place to place”. That I did.
The freshpeople and transfers have hit campus.
This may be my favorite curvy place in all of Manhattan…
Ailsa’s theme this week was silhouette. Last week was sunset. Here is my mashup…
It’s nature’s way of tellin’ you something’s wrong
It’s nature’s way of tellin’ you in a song
It’s nature’s way of receiving you
It’s nature’s way of retrieving you
It’s nature’s way of telling you something’s wrong
It’s nature’s way of tellin’ you through the breeze
It’s nature’s way of tellin’ you dying trees
It’s nature’s way of receiving you
It’s nature’s way of retrieving you
It’s nature’s way of telling you something’s wrong
May the odds be ever in your favor
Yesterday was a simple Sunday. Rode the 1 train up to 181st and then walked west, crossed the footbridge, and then down under the GWB to the Little Red Lighthouse and south until I came out on 104th Street and walked home. You know the end of summer is nigh by the intensity of the parties and barbeques happening by the riverside. People want to get the fun in before the Autumn arrives. I did not shoot much of that. I was on a nature walk not a “Sunday Morning Coming Down” tour – great song by the by. So, I invite you to walk with me…(warning …it was a long walk)
Got home and had a deep, serious conversation with Katherine and then we all watched The Hunger Games (see quote at beginning). After that K and I watched the final episode of The Newsroom. (life ain’t like that…)
Morning found us calmly unaware
Noon burned gold into our hair
At night, we swam the Laughing sea
When summer’s gone
Where will we be
Summer’s almost gone
Summer’s almost gone
We had some good times
But they’re gone
The winter’s comin’ on
Summer’s almost gone
John Densmore, Robby Krieger, Ray Manzareck, Jim Morrison
Since I did “Up” a few days ago I thought I should contemplate the other aspect…
Since we just got back to the city, I am touching base with all my go to places.
The Greenmarket is reflecting end of summer…
They are not lying. I touched one briefly and very gently and then a few minutes later brushed my eyelid. The heat started immediately. Last year some people thought I had milded up my salsa too much….We shall see how they feel this year…
This week’s Photo Challenge is Merge….
