New York New York
A helluva town...
So what would you say is the most New York part of New York? What I mean by that is - if you was gonna make a kern (coin) - and you wanted to stick something on the back that was the symbol of New York - what would it be?
Empire state building would look good on a silver dollar, or even a half dollar...maybe the parachute jump in working order or the cyclone or the wonder wheel could go on the reverse...
Actually, these days one would expect to see donald trump on a coin...or the starbux logo...or
Okay, so let's say it's the Empire State Building. Now, how'm I going to get a great shot of it. Current lenses: 28mm and 50mm. I don't know how Andy Wharhol did it, but he managed to make his movie about (of) the Empire State Building from a building across the way. That's where I'd like to be for a night. Wonder if there are any hotel rooms facing the ESB. Man, that would be great.

I do think this is going to be the year the Mets make the playoffs - but I think that every year before they start playing.
Quintessential NYC? ... Sabrett hotdog cart (and vendor, of course.) I'm sure my son Ben would agree!
