Good Morning, 42nd Street !!!!!
Was back in NYC after 13 years and this the two first photos I took .. during my visit. Both are taken from room 2410 on Westin Grand Central Hotel on 42nd Street.
The silhouette photo I took still lying in my bed, it was the fist thing I saw when I opened my eyes that morning – not a very focused photo (just like myself) – but I like it just because of that. Sunday 8th of Sept, and the beginning of a glorious day and a fantastic 5 day stay in NYC.
When I walked over to the window …. looked down on 42nd Street and it was nearly empty … no sounds what so ever out there! A very strange experience …. A quite NYC!

Great first photo! Funny, even before I scrolled down and saw the song link, I was humming that song in my head.
Thank you so much, Angeline …. not the most focused photo I have taken, but it was the first thing I saw when I opened my eyes that morning. Love the colors.

awesome photos!!!! Are you feeling any better yet?
Terry, millions thanks. You know what they say that things has to get worst before they will get any better – I think I’m at that point just now, because it hasn’t gone any better *laughing.
Great captures Viveka… love the early morning shot and the one from the window looking down ,,marvelous…
Bob, thank you so much … I was a bit afriad to drop the camera from 24th floor … the part of the window that we were able to open was so small – so I could only have the hands with camera outside it.

Thanks for reminding me of this song. I remember it as sung by Cat Stevens though.
My pleasure … I posted with Cat Stevens version first, but changed my mind … don’t really know why. Great song from my youth. *smile

Love Neil Diamond! Good morning to you, Viveka. Hoping today brings you sunny smiles and no pain 🙂
Jo, Good Afternoon to you …. Neil Diamond one of my favorite too! My day so far has been a bit dizzy, but quite a bit better than yesterday – so hopefully the medicine have started to work. Yesterday was terrible, still with a bit of fever – still in bed. *smile – best place for me I suppose.

Early morning shots in Manhattan can be awesome … well done.
Great photos, Viveka. You’re so right about it being unusual to see a quiet New York. Love the quote, and the song, 🙂 Neil Diamond, one of the best.
Yes, Neil Diamond is a great artist – been around so long as me … I think. Thanks for your always so kind support.
The photo I took from the bed … had the camera beside the bed, but not my glasses *laughing
Love the yellow taxis and street markings! Great shot!
Josette, thank you so much *smile … I love the yellow NYC cabs too … but the drivers is some miserable bunch.
Love the photos….Love the song!
