Wintertime in New York
There’s nothing like the first snowfall. After the storm, people come out to sled in the park, and the city looks so clean.
This is also my first stroll with my new DSLR, photo DSC-0001. I recently purchased a Nikon D90 in anticipation of my trip to South Africa in a few months. I am still learning the camera, but I’m very happy with the results from this first outing.

The Hearst Tower is two buildings in one. The base was commissioned by Hearst and completed in 1928, but the Great Depression haulted the construction of the tower. Almost 80 years later, this modern, triangular-grided tower was added.
