Wayne Sadler 609 Posted November 15, 2017 For some reason this view to the Gapstow Bridge in Central Park brings to mind this phrase. Among the church going southern Baptist in my community a sermon on “Dry Bones in the Valley” ranks up there with a state of the union address. I don’t recall ever hearing such a sermon, but Ezekiel 37:1-14 makes sense. Link to comment
michaellinder 16,613 Posted November 15, 2017 To me, getting just a small a glimpse of the bridge may be unique in photographs shot in this area of Central Park, at least in my experience. The perspective, together with the lush vegetation, ties the image together. Link to comment

GerrySiegel 868 Posted November 15, 2017 A good eye. It may only be appreciated by photographers who trod the byways of a city. I like the angle and the choices you made. Including the tree trunk on the left against the buildings in the distance. A nook in the big city. Frederic Law Olmsted would approve. Big time. Link to comment
Guest Guest Posted November 15, 2017 I love the mix of time in city photo, congrats ! Link to comment
Wayne Sadler 609 Posted November 16, 2017 Thanks, Patsy. I keep returning to this site, hoping to image something close to the magnificent paintings I've seen of this bridge. Link to comment
Wayne Sadler 609 Posted November 16, 2017 Many thanks, Michael. Excellent observation. I saw the bridge element as a small part of the composition. Link to comment
Wayne Sadler 609 Posted November 16, 2017 Many thanks, Gerry. You are right. I did not think this image would get much notice - too subtle and not enough "umph". I struggled with the tree to the left, but it was there and I think I squinted to see it working in this image. Link to comment
bruckner 539 Posted November 16, 2017 Like the composition of nature as welcoming place with the coldness of the city, well seen and presented. Link to comment
Wayne Sadler 609 Posted November 20, 2017 Many thanks, George. You nailed why Central Park is so fascinating and alluring. Link to comment
