Does this photo matter? vol.6

Yes, it is a plant, but what does it give to the viewer? In my opinion, nothing. 

Does this photo matter? vol.5

 I know, it is a beautiful scene. But the light of the electric lights really doesn't get the attention.

Does this photo matter? vol.4

This was another great scene, but a poor execution by me.

Two birds were having a fight over a new lover or the area. Whatever it is, it was a great scene, which lasted for some time. I was very engaged of the activity, not so much of noticing the bad background. But it is what it is. Next time better, uh?

Does this photo matter? vol.3

 I guess it is always okay to take photos of the cutters?

Does this photo matter? vol.2

This photo would make some sense, but only if you know the background.

These cakes are called Aleksandrikook, cake of Alexander. These were first made in Finland in 1814, when the emperor Alexander the 1st visited Helsinki. It is basically two sheets of nice buttery layers, which has jam between them. On top there is powdered sugar glaze.

I bought these from a store, which went out of business and they were selling the original Aleksandri cakes. I just wanted to capture the essence of these cakes in the simple form. 

 

Does this photo matter? vol.1

I have some photos, which I have been just ignoring. Perhaps last week of the year is the right time to bring out these and get over with it. Hahahaa!

This photo would have made lots of sense, but I just didn't have enough of equipment to capture it. 

You can see a carcass of a huge seal, which has expanded on the shore. A fox with its pups came along and they all nibbled on the carcass. Crazy story, uh? But all you got was this photo below.

 Near the Ground Zero construction site in 2009. 

Good-bye, New York vol.5

Near Red Cube, what is a red-painted steel cuboid public sculpture at 140 Broadway Avenue. It was designed by Isamu Noguchi and it was installed in 1968.

Good-bye, New York vol.4

 

Gorgeous downtown Manhattan fall walks in New York City.

Good-bye, New York vol.3

 Somewhere downtown, I guess.

Good-bye, New York vol.2

 Near 59th Street Columbus Circle Subway Station. Fall in NYC is beautiful, calm and warm.

Good-bye, New York vol.1

These are that last photos of my USA trip series, which I started in 2010. Wow, right? A whole lotta photos. I will add the last 15 here and there, but this is it. Perfect timing, as I had just left home in 2009 around this time.

New York landmarks vol. 7

The landmark's week will be closed with the photo of Donald Trump’s mixed-use skyscraper, containing offices, shops, eateries, condos & a public atrium.

New York landmarks vol. 6

Though this area is perhaps not so interesting for an average tourist. But since is it o world famous, it is always worthy of stepping by and admire The Wall Street district. 

New York landmarks vol. 5

 I guess everybody recognize this place - Times Square. It is a major commercial intersection, tourist destination, entertainment hub, and neighborhood in Midtown Manhattan, New York City.

New York landmarks vol. 4

 Another famous circular landmark in New York - Rockefeller Center. It is the home of the New York Christmas tree and is a busy place to be during December.

New York landmarks vol. 3

This is the Globe Sculpture at the 59th Street Columbus Circle Subway Station. Also considered one of the familiar sights. It introduces the Central Park, as it is just by the beginning of the whole park.

New York landmarks vol. 2

Bryant Park offers to those in New York always a convenient and romantic skating experiences.  

New York landmarks vol. 1

The beginning of December in 2009 marked my last week in the States. I took some time to go back to New York and walked around and took the last shots of its landmarks.

This site no longer exist, of course it has been quite long as well, but anyway. This is the Ground Zero site.
