Looking Skyward
Being afraid of high places it is easier for me to look up from the ground rather than look down from ‘up there’. Looking up can be dizzying as well.

Views from the Ferry
A few iconic views from the Staten Island Ferry; Brooklyn Bridge, Statue of Liberty and Governors Island ( which was just purchased by the city of New York ).
More Steel Bridge
Above, Skywatch Friday, railroad ties and what looks like a former homeless camp. I finished packing and had a couple hours to spare before our flight to NY/JFK so I thought I would post at least once more.
Skywatch Friday
Vapor Trail or perhaps ‘Vapour Trail’, by Ride.
Bird on a Wire/Skywatch Friday

From the Staten Island Ferry
Looking back at lower Manhattan and the Brooklyn Bridge from the Staten Island Ferry. There was quite a crowd of people standing on the aft end of the ferry taking pictures. I thought I had a good spot to shoot from, but was soon overrun by camera-clutching tourists pushing me around as everyone jockeyed around for that ‘perfect spot’. A bit crazy, but riding the ferry is a good way to see lower Manhattan and the east channel, downtown Brooklyn, etc.
Tour Boat and Dog
Dogs are not allowed on this beach, leashed or not. Some dog owners need to pay attention to the posted signs and perhaps even follow the instructions.
Puget Sound/Olympic Mountains
On a very cool Fall afternoon you can see the Olympic Mts. in the background.
