Daytime scene during a sunny, early spring day in a relatively green City at a famous public park with an absolutely fabulous view of one of the City's skylines, facing a group of trees just starting to produce their first buds; in the foreground, amid the trees, there are statues themed for a classic children's story, standing in front of a human-made concrete pool that is preparing to be filled with water for the season; the section of skyline in the distance, primarily a concentration of thin, supertall skyscrapers, is known to be for billionaires; it takes different strokes to move the world, yes it does.

Daytime scene on a cloudy and rainy winter day at a big public park in a major city, facing a small and lightly-wooded area where only a couple of hearty small trees are still hanging on to their leaves; the other trees, with their darkened bark standing in contrast to the light layer of white snow on the floor, include varieties of elm, maple, and birch; also prominent in the scene is a giant rock - half buried in the ground - of at least seven meters in length is actually four-hundred and fifty year old metamorphic rock called Manhattan Schist; the island is basically made of this rock, known for its strength and ability to support big skyscrapers; the sky is cold and overcast and it is still raining, but very lightly.
Daytime scene on a cloudy and rainy winter day at a dandy public park in a major city, facing a great paved stone terrace surrounded by nature; a small frozen lake on one side and a grand staircase and bridge on the other, the eighteen-sixty-four Bethesda Terrace and its iconic fountain is a work of art and a city landmark; there are about one hundred people touring the lower terrace, despite its being covered in puddles and slippery spots; the sky is cold and overcast and it is still raining, but very lightly.
Daytime scene on a cloudy and rainy winter day at a grand public park in a major city, standing at the edge of a small, frozen lake and facing a group of small Canadian geese; they are lined up along the cement wall of the terrace, presumably begging tourists for snacks; at the other side of the lake are the still-colorful trees of a small wood; at the horizon are the silhouettes of towers of buildings on the City's west side; the sky is cold and overcast and it is still raining, but very lightly.
Daytime scene on a cloudy and rainy winter day at a sweet public park in a major city, on a paved pathway facing a lightly-trafficked fareway, just as an elegant horse-drawn carriage makes its way past; in the foreground, there is a glowing lamp on an antique lamppost, surrounded by snow and slush; off in the distance, past a stand of bare winter trees, is the silhouette of a small section of upper-east side skyline; the sky is cold and overcast and it is still raining, but very lightly.

Nighttime scene in a popular and famous public park in a large City, facing a park bench that has a couple inches of snow on and where someone has built a small snowman; it is a rather unconventional snowman in that is is mainly the bust of a snowman, starting with its upper torso; there is a piece of wood in the snowman's hole-mouth, and circular holes for coat buttons; in the distance, floodlights illuminate a famous art museum.

Daytime scene on a snowy morning at a great park in the center of a borough of a large city, walking one of the nature trails and facing an old stone arch surrounded by stones - both coleres in green moss as well as snow; the sky, the floor, and all the trees are covered in a light blanket of fresh, white snow; a young person, wearing a heavy coat and ear muffs, passes under the massive stone arch.
Daytime scene on a snowy morning at a great park in the center of a borough of a large city, facing a small, lightly frozen lake which is surrounded by snow-covered trees; the lake meanders its way west through the park toward a massive, historical, art deco building with two great towers standing tall against the gray, snowy sky.
Daytime scene on a snowy morning at the great mall of a park in the center of a borough of a large city, facing down the center of the mall corridor where a number of people are braving the cold to enjoy the tranquil and scenic first snowfall; all of the trees lining the mall have lost their leaves already and are now covered in 1-2 inches of fresh snow; most people are wearing black because they like to dress like one another; to the side of the scene, beside a park lamppost, there is an open food cart parked selling crepes and waffles - just the thing for a cold, snowy morning; the floor is still covered in a sheet of pressed snow and is quite slippery in places.
Daytime scene on a snowy morning at the entrance of a great park in the center of a borough of a large city, looking down a snow-covered sidewalk and across the street at a snow-covered Muswum of Natural History; all down the sidewalk, all the way to the vanishing point, are various food carts, offering everything from Latin American and Halal food - to hot dogs and cheeseburgers; a couple of young people are waiting for their hot dogs; the museum across tge street has a circular tower with a type of steeple on top; it has just opened for the day but it is cold and windy, so many are discouraged from visiting today; the towers of a large building appear in the distance among the snow-covered December trees.
