Under San Remo

At 145 Central Park West, The San Remo, whose residents have included

such personalities as Tiger Woods, Dustin Hoffman, Glenn Close, Bono,

Rita Hayworth, Bruce Willis…- ok, enough name dropping- is one of New

York’s oldest and most dazzling buildings in the historic west side

district. But to me it is my landmark to find my way out of central

park. The park is obviously designed to get you lost. There is no

direct path to anywhere. In fact most paths lead to dead-ends so to

speak. So I had to give homage to this building with photos because

after walking the park for hours (being lost for hours) there was

something comforting about looking up and seeing this building and

feeling hope that I would eventually find my way out of the park.

Comments and critique welcome.

Nice and very well composed, great use of DOF!

I like me too the composition and subject.

Maurizio and Radu,

Many thanks.  I was surprised at how well the composition seemed to work. While I saw other tourists trying to avoid tree limbs in their pictures, I found myself searching them out.

Really like your composition here Wayne. I can think of worse places to be lost in other than Central Park.
