Photo of the Week 6: Going for home…

If you’re like me, you’ve been catching as much of the Little League World Series on TV as possible. Recently, I had the opportunity to catch a qualifying game held at Latrobe’s Legion-Keener Field. It was great to see these athletes in action and to see the coaches getting into it as well!

Big Apple Hodgepodge…

I’m not really sure how to categorize these – observations from my trip, I guess…

From Eataly, 23rd and Broadway - oh my...

I thought this was on the ironic side...

... And thought this was much more appropriate...

I got one of these for Christmas when I was in 3rd grade. They were made by Honda - you pushed back on that piece and it took off...

I spent a little time at Strawberry Fields - actually, less than I was hoping to, mainly because this was all that was going on the entire time. I wonder how many of the people actually even knew who Lennon was.

This fountain was in Battery Park and these kids were having an absolute ball. Not sure what kind of a group it was, but the girl on the right was one of the counselors and the others worked for about half an hour before they could finally get her out in to the fountain.

Shenanigans...

Landscapes from the Big Apple…

It would be tough to walk the streets of New York City and NOT find great things to photograph. Here are some of my favorites from my recent trip…

I loved being able to capture this image of the Statue of Liberty, Lower Manhattan and the Brooklyn and Manhattan Bridges...

While I didn't hit the Statue of Liberty because I've done it before, I did spend some time on Ellis Island. Great visit - it's almost eerie to walk through those rooms and the grand hall upstairs...

The building in the middle that's undergoing construction is the new World Trade Center.

The Brooklyn Bridge (new World Trade Center in the background).

A couple different looks at the Empire State Building...

My favorite building in New York City - the Flatiron Building...
