Advent B&W Photo Reflections 4th December 2017


   The idea behind these photos is to 'take time' to intentionally be 'waiting' for what the Christmas Season can be all about. Today's photo is from September but it represents a reminder that I went this morning into town and spent a time sitting in the park and reflecting on life, the universe and all things... that park reminded me of this for more spectacular one. This garden is at the beginning of one end of the NYC 'Highline.' This is a disused raised freight rail line from about 13th St up to the late 30, early 40 Sts. It's been turned into a Trust managed walk and Community Garden that is just unique and spectacular... I loved being there on a warm day and walking it's length with my family!!
   It had not existed on my previous trips so it was new for all of us. Advent should be about doing new things!! There are sculptures, gardens, paintings, seats, bleachers, viewing platforms and the 10th Ave overhang that make it a varied and interesting way to see Manhattan.
   It reminds me of what people can do with intent, cooperation and listening, with a common will and the imagination to work positively!
