Fire Island, July 2007.

Fireworks over the Manhattan skyline, 4th of July, 2006. The main fireworks display is on the East River, but I can’t see those from my apartment. This is the display near the Statue of Liberty, seen beyond the buildings of lower Manhattan (that’s the new World Trade Center 7, over on the left).

Gay Pride March, 5th Avenue, New York.

The Frederic C. Hamilton Building, Denver Art Museum.

My latest great-niece, Katie, with her dad.

The view from my window just before midnight on New Year’s Eve, looking towards Times Square.

Geese flying to — where is it that geese fly to in the wintertime? This gaggle was photographed at New Paltz, NY, in October 2006.

Snowflake at the intersection of 5th Avenue and 57th Street, New York.

Sunset on the World Financial Center (from a boat on the Hudson). In case you’re interested, the tall building to the left of the three main WFC buildings is the new World Trade Center 7 — the first part of the rebuilding of the World Trade Center to be completed.
