central park south

I suspect many of us from more rural areas who have seen Central Park

in New York city are surprised to find so much of it reminiscent of

home – lakes, fields, forested areas and even areas designed with

boulders and streams that transported me personally to areas in the

Great Smoky Mountains of Tennessee. It is no wonder why New Yorkers

love their park. Recently, as ever taller buildings have sprung up

near the park, (evidently many were wrong in thinking the depth of the

bedrock in that area is not suitable to support tall buildings and/or

money talks) New Yorkers appear mixed in their reception of these

buildings, but even more united in treasuring their oasis – Central

Park. Comments and critique appreciated.

I like the way you've composed this image with vegetation in the foreground, and the buildings in the background. Beautiful colors too.  New Yorkers do well in preserving their oasis. As a child, I used to play in the Parque del Olivar, in Lima; although beautiful in its own way, very different from Central Park.

Kind Regards,

Rosario.

Hi Wayne,

  Beautiful scene with wonderful colors, details & lighting.  Take care, Patsy

Rosario & Patsy,

Many thanks.  Kind comments from two of my favorite artists are most encouraging.

Your water coloring style well recognizable even on thumbnail image size!

Well seen post-processing as well as presentation itself!

Thank you for stopping by at my site,

Grigoriy

A beautiful composition with very nice lighting, Wayne!

Grigoriy,

Thanks.  Very perceptive. I was very selective in applying the painterly like quality to this image.

Ruud,

Thanks.  The lighting took a little work. My buildings were in bright sunlight and the lower part in deep shadow.

Wayne, I see two people who look at nice skyline of New York very nice compostion and atmosphere -contrast of the buildings Wayne a very nice work.   best regards janegbert
