Default 4 more from the New England Trip

There are a lot of stairs in New York. It's been done a bunch of times I just had to when I saw it.
Stairs

I don't understand how you can leave your bicycle chained to a post so long that it is falling apart. Literally I probably could have yanked on the bike (the one with the basket) a few times and it would have broke the frame leaving a chain there.
Rusty Bikes

On our walk to the Brooklyn Bridge to meet a high school friend. It looked rather menacing to me like the evil castle in a story.
Menacing City

We made it more than half way across the bridge before it started to rain on us. I think this is the best one from the bridge.
Brooklyn Bridge

Thanks for looking.

No matter how many staircase shots you see it is amazing that they are all so interesting. Love your Bridge shot.

Interesting time in NYC. About the staircase, I agree, you just had to do it...I would have!

I love the repeating patterns in the 1st shot and the leading lines in the bridge shot. I wish I could also go to New England with my dslr.

Thanks. They are all nice to look at. I was trying to do something different with the bridge it kind of looks the same as the shot of it that is in pizza joints around the US.

I definitely had an interesting time in NYC. I was a little paranoid about all the building around. I kept looking up. I was going to go to the top of the stairs and take one facing down but I was so tired at the end of the day and in too much of a hurry in the mornings.

Thanks. New England was a blast with the DSLR. I recommend going.
