Rockefeller Center after dark in the rain

rockefeller center Manhattan new york city reflection rainy night

After the lightning storm in New York we ate dinner in Brooklyn with plans to walk over the Brooklyn Bridge back into Manhattan. However, the rain started again so the rest of the family called it a day and went back to the place we were staying in Spanish Harlem. I parted with them near the Rockefeller Center. I wanted to go up to the Top of the Rock for a view of New York in the rain at night, but it was closed due to the continued threat of lightning. Instead, I took a walk to Times Square. At the beginning of that walk I captured this image of part of the Rockefeller Center and Radio City Music Hall reflecting in the fountain across the street on the corner of 6th Avenue and 49th Street.

I’m going to really miss Copenhagen this summer. Today’s photo is of the famous street Strøget.

Today’s photo was taken in basically the same spot as this prior pic. The main difference is I was looking in a different direction. That’s a lot of action for 11 p.m.

Shibadaimon (芝大門)

Once upon a time, Zojoji was a huge, sprawling temple of the Tokugawa family. I think it included all of the land which is now under and around the Tokyo Tower. One of its entrances was Shibadaimon (the grassy big gate), pictured to the right of this image. Now, if you walk from the Hamamatsucho Station to Zojoji you will pass through Shibadaimon several blocks before you get to the formerly inner Zojoji gates which are now the outer Zojoji gates.
