Walkway over FDR

Posted by JJ (Jersey City, United States) on 4 March 2009 in Cityscape & Urban.

This is walkway that goes over the top of the FDR highway on the Eastside of NYC to a little area where you can look over the East river, I go there occasionally to relax and unwind, decided to pop there yesterday and see what it looked like after the sow, was a bit chilly yesterday with windchill was -9 when I left home in the morning, had warmed up to 17 by the time I took this shot

Thank you for taking the time to visit. I really appreciate all your comments, and welcome any critique as I am learning the art of photography, and having a blast with it

Getting ready for a work trip from the 29th so may not be able to check all your posts but will do as and when I can

Beautiful path snap. I really like how my eyes try to create a tunnel effect even when there is no "roof" to the converging lines. Lovely blue in the sky as well.
