I had about an hour to myself on Sunday morning in New York City last weekend. The weather was uncommonly clear and mild for December, and I took full advantage. The hour that I spent in Central Park was in extreme contrast to the hustle and bustle and excitement of the rest of the weekend. Maybe that’s why I look at these pictures and feel completely serene.
I even managed to get a self portrait (can you find me in one of the shots?).

Disclosure: Disney/Dreamworks sent me to New York City to see the World Premiere of War Horse, as well as a handful of other exciting treats to fill up our time there. I am so grateful for the chance I had to go, and although this post is not “about” War Horse, I still wanted to mention about the free trip.

Gorgeous! I’m so bummed I didn’t get over there this trip. I want a do-over!
LOVE the saxophone player. :)
I’m so glad that you were able to get out on a mild day to get some shots. I just love the one of the saxophone player! And your self-portrait is genius. I’ll have to give that a try! Can’t wait to see you…
I am so envious, I want to go to NYC someday! Beautiful photos! Merry Christmas!
