It's a rainy morning here, and I'm trying not to think about the Yankees. I started looking through last December's images for our annual greeting card.
I won't be using this to show a new season, but it does fit my gloomy mood.
It was taken about an hour after dawn, having rained most of the night.

I like it very much. It doesn't look gloomy to me - it looks like a brand new day is awakening.

I agree with DebAnn. I like it.

Nice shot, looks familiar, but then I've walked around a lot of NYC, both for photos and when I was working.

I like this image too. I like the reflections, the birds and the muted background. Also the composition.

There are at least three possibilities available.

1. Cropped the bottom up to just above the upper fence.

2. Cropped top down to the BIF above and Cropped bottom up to the reflected inverted top of the reflected BIF.

3. Cropped top down to the top of fence.

Nice image. Yes, the Yankees. Worse for me, I have to try to not think about the Dodgers.

Lovely lmage.

Nice shot! Too bad the birds aren't a little more organized. You may want to replace them with a shot of a 'V' formation.

They don't have to be pigeons do they? I am offering you a suggestion to think outside the box of NYers who must not get out much.
