The Lake (frozen!) at Central Park
the Pergola (I'm pretty sure it was used in the film 'Kramer vs Kramer' - it certainly looks like it anyway).

I'm not really doing the 'head on the side' pose here, the wind was blowing pretty hard and I was just trying to keep the hair out of my face :)
pigeons (I took this one for Thomas) at the Empire State Building, and views downtown and to Brooklyn
trying to fit in the height of the Empire State Building from street level....
THE statue :)
a view back to downtown New York from the Staten Island Ferry

I liked this angle
A view back to that famous NYC skyline
Me and the lady - as you can see, it was freeeeeeezing!
The Registry Room at Ellis Island (near the Statue of Liberty) where millions of immigrants to the U.S were processed between 1892 and 1954 - it was quite an amazing place to walk through and to listen to peoples' stories (on the audio guide).
the view to 'the mainland' from the Registry Room
Ellis Island Immigration Museum
That famous New York skyline - don't be fooled by the blue sky: it was freezing!
Bye New York!
