Spring Trees, Central Park - a photo on Flickriver

Spring Trees, Central Park

            Spring Trees, Central Park. © Copyright 2023 G Dan Mitchell.

Walkers pass through an area of lawns and large spring trees in Central Park, Manhattan.

This photograph — my last from my end-of-March visit to Manhattan — has been sitting in the queue for weeks as I’ve share other images. I made it during a brief bit of lovely spring sun during a long weekend when it pretty much rained constantly. In part, I scheduled this visit when I did because I had been told that “New York is beautiful in spring.” (We always manage to visit in December or August, arguably among the worst months there!) Until this final morning, when the sun came out for a few hours, I wasn’t so sure about that “beautiful spring” claim.

I stayed a few blocks from the lower end of Central Park, so even on the rainy days I joined the throngs of New Yorkers and New York visitors for walks in the park. I’ll admit that it was a beautiful and moody place in the rainy weather — but not very comfortable! After three days of rain, this morning was extra beautiful.
