Summer in New York

My dream for as long as I can remember has been to go to New York City and have time to walk around and take pictures.  Last summer, my dream came true when I was teaching at NYU.  I also took a photography class at the International Center for Photography, and I took every opportunity I had to just walk around with my camera.

Otter in the beaver dam in Candler Park

The beaver dam on the Candler Park golf course has become the home of not just beavers, but otters, muskrats, turtles, frogs and snakes and many birds including kingfishers and herons. The otter is just an occasional visitor but he showed up and clearly enjoyed an audience around Christmas time.
