Loon Lake 2005
In September 2005 we took my mother with us on vacation to Loon Lake in the Adirondacks, New York. As part of an assignment in photography I was asked to reprocess some old photographs. Over the next couple of weeks you will see the results of my edits to my Adirondack folder. The first picture is the Inn we stayed at by the lake. We were the only ones there.
Subway Door
A nice brass door in the wall next to the tracks at the 72nd Street and Broadway Subway Station in Manhattan. For Thursday doors 8/4/2022. See https://nofacilities.com/2022/08/04/clay-hill-part-2/
Jamaica Bay
A short trip to Jamaica bay netted these. It was great to see that the East Pond is once more accessible. This is thanks to the efforts of dedicated birders like Andrew Baksh, who worked with Gateway National Recreation Area to see to it the the pumps were repaired. The water levels are now maintained at a lower levels so that both shorebirds and birders may use the shores of the pond.
Jackson Square GV
Jackson Square at the beginning of Horatio Street has lovely plantings. I added a couple of odd photographs taken locally: A spooky dead rose and someone sprayed a stencil of an angel on the sidewalk.
High Line and Little Island at Sunset
It is a little cooler in the evenings and many people go to the Parks by the Hudson River to enjoy the sunset.
Brooklyn Bridges
I felt these look better as black and white.
Brooklyn Bridge Park
After our morning visit to Green-Wood Cemetery we ate our picnic at Brooklyn Bridge Park. We were lucky to find parking on John Street by the ConEdison Farragut Substation. After lunch I bought an ice cream at the Brooklyn Ice Cream Factory. I enjoy ice cream on a hot day. I processed these with cooling blue and violet filters to change the time of day plus added skies.
