A pencil drawing of the New york skyline by Brooklyn Bridge. This took over a year to draw…and I enjoyed every second :)
Central Park, NYC
This guy was in front of me on his cell phone while I was walking over the Brooklyn Bridge. I couldn’t resist the mystery of the moment. :) Yes, I solarized/edited it for a future world/past world sort of feeling. :) Sold 1 mounted print to a collector in Florida, USA.
Brooklyn Bridge
Construction began on January 3, 1870. The Brooklyn Bridge was completed thirteen years later and was opened for use on May 24, 1883. On that first day, a total of 1,800 vehicles and 150,300 people crossed what was then the only land passage between Manhattan and Long Island. The bridge’s main span over the East River is 1,595 feet 6 inches (486.3 m). The bridge cost $15.5 million to build and approximately 27 people died during its construction. We loved the early morning walk across from Brooklyn to Manhattan as the sun was shining on a gorgeous December Morning. The inspirational stories of human endeavor and loss of life in building this magnificent structure are something else. As you walk across, to your left the Statue of Liberty, the gateway to America, to your right, The Empire State Building, a 1930s construction that is now the tallest building in New York. Also to the right the Chrysler Building, same period as the Empire State and probably the most ornate skyscrapper in the city. As you near Manahattan the financial district looms up on the left bank and memories of the Twin Towers halt you in your tracks as you gaze in wonder at the space they have left.

Gibson Cotton Mill Now owned by the National Trust.and is a Heritage site. History Lord Holme Mill – to give it its official title – was erected in the early 1800s by Abraham Gibson, a Heptonstall farmer and cotton spinner, of Greenwood Lee. Following his death in 1790, it was his son, another Abraham, who set in motion the changes which were to transform the family’s cottage industry into a much more ambitious concern; a factory was erected in the heart of Hardcastle Crags and manufacturing began in earnest. Gibson Mill was one of the first generation mills of the Industrial Revolution. The Mill was driven by a water wheel inside and produced cotton cloth up until 1890. In 1833, 21 workers were employed in the building, each working an average 72 hours per week. After it shut down as a working mill, the building became a mini holiday centre or “entertainment emporium” with a cafe, dance hall and skating rink catering mainly for day trippers who visited what became known as “Little Switzerland” until what seemed like its final closure in 1945. “The family line was to survive for only four generations, however. Abraham the second was succeeded by his younger son, William, who in turn produced yet another Abraham, nicknamed “Young Ab,” whose death, in 1956, brought the Gibson dynasty to an end.” “But his legacy was to have far-reaching effects on the area, for it was Young Ab, who not only left a considerable sum of money to local good causes, but, perhaps more significantly, willed his Hardcastle Crags acres to the National Trust.” (Milltown Memories, summer 2003) Since then the mill and its surrounding cottages, in spite of their setting in some of the loveliest countryside in Yorkshire, have fallen into disrepair although they have proved to be useful venues for promenade plays and in recent years as the set for Dotheboys Hall in a film of Charles Dickens’s novel “Nicholas Nickleby
This is the now Park Hotel on North Street in York, sitting next to the River Ouse in York, over shadowing both the river and the Ouse Bridge. Although most of the time it really is a local blot on the skyline of the river and city, at certain times it becomes the photographers friend, like this moment when it light up in the morning sun.

The Manhattan Bridge is a suspension bridge that crosses the East River in New York City, connecting Lower Manhattan (at Canal Street) with Brooklyn (at Flatbush Avenue Extension) on Long Island. It was the last of the three suspension bridges built across the lower East River, following the Brooklyn and the Williamsburg bridges Manhattan, NY, September 27 – 2OO9
The morning sun is slowly burning away the early morning mist along the River Ouse as it flows through York, yet the mist still was holding it’s own enough to help create this twin on the river surface. A slice of morning life on the river, from the geese, pleasure boats moored up and the tour boat about to start it’s day and the geese and ducks taking to the river.
