If you are a fan of jazz and you’re coming to #NYC, look into #Dizzy’s #Jazz at #Lincoln Center. Fabulous music, great views of #CentralPark South and great seats no matter where you are. #Travel #Tourism #ILoveCities
Often, here in #NYC, there are similar cloud formations in the morning--the post prior--and early evening. The difference? The way the sun casts its magic over the city and the park.

The #JohnSingerSargent exhibit at the #MetropolitanMuseumOfArt is stunning. Seen here is the once “scandalous” #painting of Madame X. Go early and during the week to get ahead of the big crowds. #NYC #Art #NativeAmerican #PortraitPainter #ILoveCities
Beautiful morning #walking through #CentralPark on the way to #Met. #Beethoven never visited the city but there is a wonderful statue. #NYC #Travel #ILoveCities #ClassicalMusic
Best spot in #CentralPark? It may not be, but the #ConservatoryGarden, a formal garden near the northeastern corner of the park, is certainly one that attracts me.
The 6-acre, European-style garden has an abundance of flowers, beautiful fountains, paths and #ThreeDancingMaidens

There may be train terminals that exceed the beauty of #GrandCentralTerminal in #NYC. If so, I haven't been to any of them. #photo #photography #ILoveCities #tourist #tourism
#RobertDoisneau, noted for his poetic approach to #StreetPhotography, captured a vast array of people and events, often juxtaposing conformist & maverick elements in images marked by an exquisite sense of #humor #Photo: Le violoncelle sous la pluie” #Paris, 1957. #ILoveCities #music #cello
As I walked around the reservoir one afternoon in #NYC's #CentralPark I was mesmerized by the illumination of the buildings along #FifthAvenue, the gift of a late afternoon, early Spring #sunset. And, I thought of #JohannesVermmer painting #ViewOfDelft. #Photography #tourist #travel #ILoveCities

Continuing along #CentralParkWest, and a just a few blocks north of the #Dakota, is the #AmericanMuseumOfNaturalHistory, which draws a big crowd every day it is open. And it's enormous, taking up four city blocks.

The #Dakota, home of many #NYC celebrities, including #JohnLennon and #YokoOno, and in front of which Lennon was murdered, is easily one of the most popular #photo ops along #CentralParkWest

At an event in the #Irish Consul General's #NYC apartment, on a rainy afternoon, I took this #photo of the #EmpireStateBuilding. A friend, who is a professional #photographer, applauded me on catching reverse images of the building in the raindrops. (Like I knew what I was doing!) :)

A man sells potatoes on the street from a pushcart--along with many other vendors--on the #LowerEastSide, #NYC sometime in the late 19th or early 20th century.
Great #photo... the clarity, the subject, the #LES and the smile.
