Great shot Tony. Not to steal your thread but here's a picture of my wife Gail taken in 1965 from the Africa side of the sphere. She was 18 at the time. We got married 2 years later!

Great shot. I worked there as a Pinkerton guard after classes at St John’s University

Iphone photo of the New York World Fair centerpiece. Not usually a phone shooter but I guess its time to get with the program.

It's still there? I saw it in 1964 during the Fair. You got a great photo of it.

Real nice shot; I have to admit my iPhone comes up a close second to my Nikon, some times.

For you old timers, here's the same subject taken almost 50 years earlier when it was brand new. My father took this shot with a 35mm Kodak Retina. No through-the-lens viewing, a very crude light sensor, fixed lens and all manual settings.

Using a Petri 7s 35mm rangefinder camera and Ektachrome film, I think.

The Unisphere is in good shape but the fountains don't look like they've operated for a long time.
