Descent | 59th St station

I hate the stairway to the 4/5 platform at 59th. It boggles me there's no elevator and that people are forced to carry children down 5 flights of stairs. It's even worse in the morning when the up escalator breaks—all too frequently.

White New Year's Eve | Central Park

The snow melted before Christmas but we were obliged with another snowfall on New Year's Eve. Feels like ages ago...was 45F this weekend.

Not a stylistic choice to have the snow color blend in with the paper base color. But of the various versions I tried, this print had enough elements I liked to discount that mild screw-up. One of the only somewhat successful--though not completely successful--split sepia/selenium toned prints I've made.
