The Unisphere is a metal sculptural representation of the globe in Flushing Meadows–Corona Park in Queens, NY. In this night time shot, the sky is dark and black. The steel globe is surrounded by water jets that are illuminated underneath sending light along their streams up into the night sky and casting an upward glow onto the sculpture.

The Unisphere appears suspended in stillness, framed by fountains that rise like breath beneath the night. Water catches the city’s glow, and the world feels momentarily buoyed by light. #BlueSkyArtShow #Glow

Spotted at Meadow Lake in Flushing Meadows Corona Park — a Double-crested Cormorant sitting on a buoy that almost looks like it’s guarding an egg 🐦🌊

Crowd greets Donald Trump with boos and cheers at US Open men’s final Donald Trump drew a mixture of boos and cheers as he attended the US Open men’s final on Sunday

"During a changeover in the second set, the camera cut to Bruce Springsteen, who has been the target of a fusillade of Trump criticism. The crowd cheered deliriously."
