Day 274: NY Skyline at Sundown - Sept 30. A late posting today. A beautiful sundown sight tonight on the last day of September. Can't believe how quickly this month flew by.

Day 273: Touch of the Tropics- Sept 29. Took a photo of this peach colored house last year but it has been calling to me all summer, each time that I passed by. So finally went back to take another shot this year. PP with a bit of Topaz Adjust.

Day 272: NY Night Lights Abstract- Sept 28. One of those days yesterday. No daylight outside time, no ideas. So resorted to making this abstract of the city lights.

Day 271: NY Skyline Sunrise - Sept 27. A very brief few moments of sunrise color yesterday morning before the sun disappeared under the clouds for the day.

Day 270: Le Carrousel - Sept 26. Two of the beautifully made horses included in the collection of fourteen animals of the carousel at Bryant Park NYC. These wonderful animals are replicas of classical carousel sculpted creatures.

Day 269: Yellow Chrysanthemums - Sept 25. Love the burst of vibrant autumn mum colors that are starting to appear. .

Day 268: Apples Farmers Market - Sept 24. Cool, crisp nights, fewer daylight hours and boxes of apples at the farmers market. Sure signs that Fall has arrived.

Day 267: Abstract-Shades of Blue - Sept 23. Here is my 'blue' post for the cancer awareness challenge. Cancer of any kind is a terrible disease to battle for the patient and loved ones. Early diagnosis is so important.

Day 265: Mill Creek Marsh, NJ Meadowlands - Sept 21. Overcast, drizzly skies in the NJ Meadowlands late yesterday afternoon.

Day 264: NY Skyline Worldwide Plaza - Sept 20. I never tire of the magic that sundown color can bring to the view of the NY skyline. This view is the west side of Manhattan in midtown of One Worldwide Plaza and surrounding buildings.

Day 263: Backlit Leaves - Sept 19. An inside project on a rainy windy day.

Day 262: NYC NY LIfe and Met Life Clock Tower at twilight - Sept 18. Would not have guessed from the crisp, clear sky last evening that we would in store for such nasty weather today. Rain, horrible wind here

Day 256: Remembering 9/11- Empty Sky Memorial NJ - Sept 12. This memorial, just recently dedicated, is located in Liberty Park NJ. It consists of two walls filled with the carved names of NJ residents who perished on that day. It was designed so that the colors and light of the sky are reflected off the walls and especially at sunset and sundow, the light burnishes the lettering of the names. The original image is filled with the blues and golds of sundown but somehow the BW version for me captures the feeling of the loss. Please also see another image today of the Tribute of Lghts as viewed from the park.

Day 256: Remembering 9/11-Tribute of Lights- Sept 12. Like more than a hundred other photographers, I trekked to Liberty State Park in NJ last night to capture this view of the 9/11 Tribute of LIghts. As always the sight of those lights is very moving and haunting but this year tempered by the growth and color of the new tower and other buildings. A welcome change after so many years of those blue lights over an empty space. But the other beautiful part of my visit to the park was seeing the new Empty Sky Memorial to those residents of NJ lost on that day. So for today, I'm posting a photo of both.

Day 255: Remembering 9/11 - Sept 11. A composite of American flags and a photo of the twin towers in memory of those who lost their lives and in gratitude to the first responders who risked their lives and all those who serve to protect the freedoms and beliefs of our country
