New York State of Mind (2/2)

Here is the second part of photos from my trip to New York! As I mentioned in the first post, a majority of the photos I took were on my phone. I specifically brought an empty 16gb sd card with me thinking I would shoot at least half of it, and I ended up taking about 70 photos. Even though I didn't take as many pictures as I originally wanted, I really like the ones that I got with my camera and my phone.  

 

1. I went to the Disney Store in Time Square, and I'm kind of obsessed with this lantern display from Tangled.

2. This is one of the lions outside The New York Public Library. // 3. And here's some pretty flowers at Bryant Park. 

4 & 5. Both of these shots are from Washington Square Park. Total we ended up visiting four parks!

6 & 7. Here's two of the pictures I got after seeing Hedwig and going to stage door. The Belasco Theater is so pretty all lit up, and I really enjoyed getting to meet Darren again. 

Annnddd those are all of the pictures I have to share from my New York trip. I love being in the city so much and I hope I have a chance to go back soon. - Jessica

New York State of Mind (1/2)

Yesterday I got back from a short trip to NYC, and while I was there I took a majority of my pictures on my phone. It was my second time traveling to New York, and I was eagerly looking forward to visiting some places that I didn't get to last time. Since we only had two full days of exploring, my sister and I tried to get as much done as possible. My sister recorded that we walked about 30 miles over four days! I also had a few firsts while on this trip: I rode a taxi and the subway for the first time, and I got to see my first Broadway show! Although the trip was very short, and tiring, I had a lot of fun and I can't wait to revisit.

1. This poster with lyrics from Taylor Swift's song "Welcome to New York", was a lovely way to be welcomed into the city. // 2. An empty subway after it's last stop. // 3. The Chrysler Building from outside Grand Central Station. // 4. This shot is from the New York Public Library, which is a beautiful building.

5 & 6. Washington Square Park, which is absolutely beautiful. // 7. Random shot from MoMA.

8 & 9. These shots were taken at the 9/11 memorial. Visiting the memorial was a breathtaking and emotional experience.

10. I made the spur of the moment decision to see Finding Neverland on Broadway, and I was surprised at how much I love it. // 11 & 12. I also went to see Hedwig and the Angry Inch I was sitting in the center of the second row, and it was one of the best experiences of my life. 

There's all my phone pictures from my trip! I didn't take that many photos with my dSLR but I do have several that I want to share in my next post. - Jessica
