penn station

The majestic Penn Station, located at 7th & 8th Avenues, between 31st & 33rd Streets in New York, guides the travelers and wanderers of the world.

this way or that way

I haven’t done any research, but someone has probably figured out the amount of people that, at any given time, are a part of the subterranean world of New York City. We are all going somewhere. We are all on the journey towards our destination and destiny, going this way, or, that way.

Even on a rainy afternoon, it was still a spectacular view.

cloud city

For a few moments it did seem like we were in cloud city! The Oculus looks out of place from this height.

people rain, people rain

From the Oculus we went to the One World Observatory. The forecast called for possible rain and, we could see it coming towards us, carried in the sky by the rainmakers.

Is that what technology is supposed to do? Huh… I must be using it wrong…

Sometimes you just don’t know where to look when you are inside the great Oculus, however, everywhere you look is kinda breathtaking.

the lines of the oculus

The Oculus gives you an incredible sense of awe and vertical space and, the Oculus also gives you lines. Lots of lines. This is my favorite image from the series of photographs that I took on my recent visit to NY.

the oculus 4

I wonder if this structure now qualifies as the “location where the most selfies are taken.” Half the fun of being here was watching all the photography going on!

the oculus 3

The Oculus leaves many impressions. I can’t get away from the idea of the skeletal remains of a giant, ancient creature that was uncovered in Lower Manhattan. I think I understand a little bit about how Pinocchio might have felt.
