New York

(26/03/10) - Two pages

Bridget and I spend a couple of night in NYC recently, after a work trip.

We stayed at the New York Palace, our room had a sweet view:

Especially during the evening:

Here's part of the lobby:

And the view out the front door, during day...

and night:

On our first day there we headed off to Central Park, where I spied the Apple store:

of course, we had to go in to check it out! It was a hive of apple fan boys and girls:

We were treated with some stunning weather while we were there, even with snow on the ground and frozen over areas of the Central Park lakes:

Cold enough even for some ice skating!

Here's a few more panoramas I took while we wandered around:

Looking to the West Side across the large Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Reservoir:

After a day of walking, we went back to our hotel and chilled out at the bar for a drink:

Then we went for a wander to the Rockefeller Center, where Bridge and I went nuts playing with our new Canon S90 cameras, which kick ASS by the way!

Full manual control and a DSLR sensor in a compact body means you can create some sweet pics:

Getting arty with a slow Time Value:

After spending an hour or so playing with the cameras, we went for a wander around some more and came across the entrance to the Rockefeller Centre, so we decided to go up!
