We had a few good snow falls from December to February. Marc made these photographs at Hudson River Park near us. There was lots of Ice on the Hudson in February. The last one is from our window by me. On that day there was 19 inches of snow in New York City.
We passed by St. Patrick’s Cathedral while looking at the Holiday displays on 5th Avenue late last November. I took these shots with Thursday Doors in mind. I know the last photograph doesn’t have a door. I included it because I like the lit up trees and scenery.
Dan’s Thursday Doors: The Lithuanian Room – No Facilities
A couple of snow scenes that I added a little color to.
I bought an orchid. I named it “Spot” (first photograph). I hope it likes it here. The rest of the photographs are from the orchid show and at the New York Botanical Gardens.
Some more about the orchid show plus my photographs. I use Lightroom and Photoshop to bring out the impressions that what to create for each image.
This post is a continuation of the previous post of the structures in this orchid show. The theme is the concrete jungle. I like all the black, it makes the orchids color’s pop.
We went to see the annual The Orchid Show: Mr. Flower Fantastic’s Concrete Jungle | New York Botanical Garden. Very unusual setting s this year. I’m not sure if I liked it. The orchids in circular laundry doors are fun.
A quote from the NYBG website:
New York City has never bloomed like this. At The Orchid Show: Mr. Flower Fantastic’s Concrete Jungle, orchids collide with concrete in a dazzling reimagining of the Big Apple, from stoops and slice shops to the subway itself. Step into a breathtaking fusion of nature and cityscape artistry in the Enid A. Haupt Conservatory, and experience the flair and style of New York transformed by thousands of flowers.
This set is for Dan’s Thursday Doors: Romanian Room – No Facilities
This is one of the few gas lamps remaining in Greenwich Village, New York City. And there is a door so I can post it for Thursday Doors. See Dan’s Swedish Room – No Facilities
