Central Park

I just wanted to share some pics I took of Central Park a couple weeks ago. They're nothing special, but I thought they were pretty.

A bee on a flower in Shakespear Garden. If you look closely, you can see the bee's tongue.





Underneath the balcony at Bethesda.






Birds perching on Bathesda.






This is a turtle in the pond next to Bathesda. People kept trying to feed it, and it kept trying to bite off peoples' fingers.






In the rambles






A tree in the rambles that reminded me of sweet potatoes.

Benches near Bathesda






Birds eating near the benches by Bathesda






A butterfly on the balcony overlooking Bathesda. It was a mean butterfly, and kept bullying other butterflies and dragonflies.






The artwork on the stairs leading down to Bathesda.



So, that's it. I hope you enjoyed them.

My newest portfolio piece

Hey, y'all. After work today, rather than go to the gym and sweat in front of a whole bunch of really skinny bitches (who wrap their mid-sections in saran wrap, thank you very much), I decided to go take a walk - a long walk - through central park. I took pictures. It was fun.

I came across this gentleman in the middle of the park, and asked if I could take his picture. Surprisingly, it came out amazing. I'm adding it to my portfolio and plan on entering it into next year's Cornell Arts Show.
