The reopening of Lady Liberty

In 1884, the Statue of Liberty was closed for much needed renovations and On July 3, 1986 it was reopening with a centennial celebration as big as only New York could stage it. These images were shot from the Brooklyn Bridge with Nikon equipment and Ektachrome film and Tri-X Pan. 

Central park. BC

I used BC to specify before children. Me  and my wife did much traveling and when in town we always went to Central Park on weekends. The sixties and seventies were wonderful and in the park there was always a show going on. There were street performers galore who wanted to better each other. You had to be there to really understand.
