I needed a break from the Fisher Flour Mill. Today, something to brighten up the Seattle doldrums.

Some of the camellia’s are starting to bloom along with tulips and dogwoods. These photos were taken at the end of a day. Sometimes the colors seem deeper at dusk as opposed to dawn, in my humble opinion.

DSC_7902-001 Different uses of NYC rooftops. Seemed like a mild version of privacy invasion, taking these photos. DSC_7895-001 DSC_7901-001

Arriving at The High Line

One more shot of the Empire State Building, then, as I mentioned in the previous post, I will visit The High Line, which has become the biggest draw for tourist visiting Manhattan. The morning I made the walk it was grey and not too crowded. Actually, most of the tourists seemed to be speaking either French or some Asian language. I think there must have been a French tourist group that were

bussed there that morning. Rather than me attempting to explain what The High Line is and how it came about I hope you take a minute to check this link if you are not familiar with the project, which is still ongoing.

Hard at Work

The angle of the shot not only captured the backside of the bee, but also made for an interesting view of the flower, if I may be so bold as to point that out.
