Fifth Avenue Library

Pretty much the last of my New York photos I am going to inflict on you.......I have plenty more but will use them sometime as a filler when I have nothing else.

This photo was taken on our first venture into NY on the way back from our Central Park walk on the first afternoon.
Books for sake on either side of the pavement or should I say sidewalk....it was too cold to browse much but I expect there is good trade when the weather is better.

Three good things:
1. A real Spring like day at last.
2. I almost felt like doing a bit of gardening!
3. Quite looking forward to tonight's election debate.

Beautiful street scene.

Great photo - what a fab place to wander if it had been warmer.
Lovely day here too and school finished for the holidays so that is a good feeling.........and I went straight out into the garden and did some serious pruning to a weeping laburnum that has been too overgrown for too long! Yesterday we had snow!!!

[Debbie]

Have loved looking at your N.Y. photos, and I nearly felt like gardening too.

[Linda]

Neat street scene.

@gijsje @sarah19 @grannysue @debbie3108
Thank you all for your lovely comments.....I note like me you said nearly felt like gardening Debbie!

[Judith Johnson]

Yes a lovely day here too - and I actually planted my potatoes on the allotment! Traditionally Good Friday is the day for potatoes but it's going to be wet tomorrow. I love your shot, so colourful and inviting, what a shame it was so cold.

[Phil Howcroft]

you've not inflicted them on us Pat, I've loved seeing them :)

[Pat Knowles]

@busylady Thanks Judith.....Harry planted his last Wednesday while I was in NY.

[Pat Knowles]

@phil_howcroft Thank you Phil, very kind! I will have to think of another subject now!

[Phil Howcroft]

@happypat it's a great city to photograph, hopefully one day I can do it too. Would love to do some streetie shots there :)

[Pat Knowles]

@phil_howcroft You will go one day Phil...plenty of time for you!!

[Hazel]

A great street view!

[🐞Lucy Dolittle]

Lovely lit, was it early morning? Great shot, loving your NY shots

[Beryl Lloyd]

A super street shot -- love the idea of browsing through all those book stalls along the way !

[Pat Knowles]

@lucypics no it was about 6pm in the evening lucy.

[Maggiemae]

Goodness - they must have to bring them all in when the day is done! Definitely sidewalks in New York and pavements in London!

[Babs]

Fabulous street scene. I would love to browse around the book stalls.

[Sue Wilde]

What a great place to wander

[Lois]

Have enjoyed your NY photos!

[Rick Schies]

There is so much to see in the Big Apple. One of these years I may get there

[Gena Pegg]

Love this...such a great neighborhood feeling to it. Glad you at least got a nice day. Watched the TODAY show today (from NYC) and it still looked very cold there. I have been there this time of year and it was quite pleasant. You just never know. Next week it could be 80 degrees.

[Margaret Obey]

Great street capture

[Peggy Sirk]

You really covered the city in your short time. Love the trees lining the sidewalk in this shot. On a warmer day I could spend hours going through those books.

[Matt Clendon]

Another great street shot. What camera are you using?

[Pat Knowles]

I have an Olympus Pen-5 Matt. One of the compact cameras that are a handy size but still have interchangeable lens. Much better suited to my lifestyle & love of everyday street shots.
