I photographed this water tank this morning from my kitchen window. I don’t suppose it is dificult for you to guess what I did to this image?

Conception Door

My husband, Marc Felix, was conceived in an apartment in this building in 1945. Soon after that his family moved to Horatio Street.

One Rusty Berry

I was intrigued by the little yellow tufts on one berry on this bush. I did a search and came up with Cedar-hawthorn Rust (Crataegus).

No more Govenors Island for a while — the last post of #OPTIC2019. Common terns nest on one of the piers there.
