Thanks Bob, Paul, and Bruce. Bruce, photo.net is sometimes doing weird things with exposure. These are 1/4 to 1/2 stop darker than the original files. Rick On Tue, May 27, 2014 at 11:08 AM, Bruce Walker wrote: > A fine gallery, Rick. Loved Overgrown. They all seem dark to me > though; purpose

Thanks, Ann! Yes, the construction shot is at 30th. Stopped briefly at B&H; it was a mob scene. I'm not in the market for anything, and the camera department is not at all set up to explore and fondle new stuff. Cheers, Rick On Tue, May 27, 2014 at 12:03 AM, Ann Sanfedele wrote: > OF course

OF course you probably know I've walked the High Line quite a bit.. I particularly like your Construction shot (That's up by 30th st, right?) and you fine shot of the daffy sculpture , which is terribly over photographed... I don't like any of mine of it. and then the walkers.. I did put a few

The High Line is an elevated railway converted to a greenway on the west side of lower Manhattan, the first section of which opened in 2009. From the 1930s until 1980 it carried freight to factories and warehouses, but manufacturing declined and trucks took over. During a brief visit to NYC la
