Hello, my friends! How is February treating you? In some places it seems to be colder than usual but in others, such as London and Paris, it’s much warmer than normal. I wonder if it will last? I’m sure all of you in the Northern Hemisphere are more than ready for spring so I’m delighted to bring you a new video featuring some of the locations that I photographed for New York in Bloom.
I mentioned in a recent post how cold and late the spring was in New York last year. To give you an idea, on the official first day of spring, it snowed eight inches! Everyone was so bundled up, even the little dogs in Central Park had down parkas and plaid wool jackets on (some matching their owners – so cute). Just when we honestly felt spring would never come, the blossoms started to peek out. I managed to get the photographs I wanted just barely in time for my deadline. A bit panicked, to be sure! So, here are a few scenes from happier, warmer days in late April and June, when I returned to photograph the rose gardens. I hope you enjoy them!
And I want to remind you about the pre-order gifts that my publisher and I have for you!

I’ll leave you with a few more scenes from Central Park that didn’t make it into the book. (I’m thinking of putting them in the shop, though. It always seems a shame to me that I have so many images that never are seen!)
Thank you again for all your support! I couldn’t do it without you! Have a wonderful new week!
