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.

my bride

Another image from our time at the beach yesterday. This is my bride of 35 years.

windman

I am back home in NY visiting my mom and dad. They still live in the house I grew up in, which is awesome! A visit to my hometown always includes a visit to the shore, where I spotted “windman” fighting to stay on the earth.

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.

the oculus 6

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.

the oculus 2

The impact of space is interesting to me. The way boundaries, limitations, and, definition is brought to space results in an emotional, almost transcendent experience. Apparently, The Oculus has received mixed reviews, but there is no denying that it does have impact.

the oculus 1

Oculus: 1. an eye. 2. Architecture. a circular opening, especially one at the apex of a dome.
It is a stunning space. This is the first of a few images from my time in Lower Manhattan.
