Before photographs with minimal processing and after with full editing and processing of winter plants photographed on the High Line Park in New York City. The yellow flowers are Witch-hazel. I just learned from a fellow blogger that there is a before and after slider. It is one of the blocks we can use in WordPress. This gives you and idea of how much I enhance images in Lightroom and Photoshop to make them look how I feel they should.

Move the sliders to see the before (left) and after (right).

We went for a short trip to the park last week. I saw some of the usual winter birds. The Northern Cardinals are starting to court. I had fun watching the Tufted Titmice. There are a lot of them this winter. Not so many Black-capped Chickadees.

Our Schlumbergera truncata finally decided to flower. We have looked after it for years. I created a background for it.

For Thursday Doors.

Before 2000 I used to work nearby at TAMS doing GIS. In the 60’s my stepfather worked in the Chanin Building as a market research manager for Richardson Merrill. We used to sometimes eat at one of the last Horn & Hardart automats nearby.

Snow scenes at Turtle pond and Belvedere Castle. After the snow storm on Tuesday February 2nd. The snow adhered to the north sides of trees and the statue.
