City and Country



The city is always chic in black and white.


The view from near Macy's


the view from London Terrace at night


the back stairs in a building in Soho


and on the bus.


Last weekend we had the last gasp of the beach


I went swimming - that's me on a float in the Long Island Sound.


Back in the city, the market at Union Square brings the country in to us...


even the bittersweet.



 Squash and pumpkin season is upon us.


Very mixed feelings about this!


Pears are in season. The year turns to fall!

    Yes indeed, Elizabeth, NYC looks particularly iconic in black and white. Your photos have got me thinking about classic films.

    However...I can also attest to the colorful glory of the crops currently on offer at the Farmers Market. Everything sings out...Take me home!

    Interesting comparisons here Elizabeth.
    Love those pumpkins - Hallowe'en will be here shortly (it is also my birthday so I doubly enjoy it)

    Great photos! I like them all, especially the London Terrace and the gathering of squash and pumpkins. Autumn is usually nice but I will SO miss summer when she's gone.
