new york: photos

What a gorgeous town :) I got some great photos of this beautiful city. Couldn't take the humidity , but it was worth it! Here are some plane and city shots. The pictures are in reverse order so if you want to see my trip chronologically, work your way up from the first picture posted !

The beautiful and historic Central Park...









The beginning of my Brighton Beach pictures....me with dad.


Brighton Beach. It holds such memories for my dad living in New York 30 years ago...hasn't changed and honestly, it's more charming that way.



My grandmother facing on the bench facing the camera, with her sister on the opposite side.

driving through the california sky, I spy...

clouds, trees, land, nebulae, the cosmos! Ok just kidding about the nebula. These first few shots are of the sun blocked by atmospheric gas, causing the powerful solar rays to go kthxbai for like a few seconds. Looks like a dying white dwarf emitting planetary gas, non? (aka a nebula) sorry lads and ladies, my inner geek came out!

mom in the car...lazy much? :)
