Photos of the Day for November and December

It has been more than a while since I last shared my “Photos of the Day” with you that I upload on Facebook every month.  These are from the month of November and December. And they were all picked by you!  This is my way of saying “thank you” to all of my followers. 

Things were very busy around here during the holidays.  But also the changes over on Facebook make it pretty certain that you will probably not see them since the social media giant is promoting friends and family and not pages.  And so since you are not seeing them on Facebook I thought this would be a good time to announce that this will be my last “Photo of the Day| collection. 

But fear not, I will continue to post photography.  After all there is always so much to see in New York.  And I even have some photos from Greece. And if you’d like to see them  you can always follow along on my photo posts here.

I’ll share these in chronological order.  Here is the park near our home.

The beach in our area.  It looks so nice and peaceful in the fall.  Of course it doesn’t compare to Greece but it is nice for me just knowing that there is a body of water nearby!

​And this strange building, Via 57 West.  It actually looks like this but I shot this as we were driving by so it came out looking very odd.  It actually has a courtyard in the center.

This simple photo of a store got a big response.  Of course it would, you all told me how much you love it.

​This next one of the New York Stock Exchange is a favorite of mine. I love the way the light reflects of the building in the foreground.  And the stones on the buildings look so bright and clean.  The street is closed off to vehicles.

Another one which I was ignorant about.  You told me they were houses for fishing in the bay.

​The first heavy snowfall of the year. This photo was taken by my daughter, InatheTeaLady at the nearby park.  You can follow her on Instagram here.

This one is by far my favorite. I love the play of light and shadow.  Concrete and nature.  Snow and  leaves.  Winter and fall.  All those opposites rolled into one photo.

​This one in celebration of Christmas.  I really moved away from the reds this year. And the printable represented the spirit of the holidays for me.

New Year’s Eve and it is snowing to bring in the New Year all soft and white.

And this last one taken on January 5th when we got 12 inches of snow dumped on us.  Well that is what I was looking forward to when thinking about New York so I’m not complaining.

My bonus… a side view of St. Patrick’s Cathedral.

    Hi Mary, love your photos. The strange shaped building those fishing houses are my favorites. It looks a lot busier there than here, but at least if you take a deep breath you can still msell the sea. Does it smell like Greek sea?…I’m not a fan of FB, but I can see people with pages slowly moving away.
    Have a happy Hump Day.

      Debbie it definitely is a lot busier but where I live it is actually nice and quiet. And the sea does not have the same smell nor the same color as in Greece. Thanks for stopping by.

    Mary, I always enjoy looking at your photos. From what I can see, I’m thinking you live close to NYC, but not in it. I originally thought you lived in the city. I know you miss Greece, but it’s got to be great to be near your kids.

    I love looking at the snow pictures since I haven’t really seen a heavy snowfall in years. But my favorite picture is the one with the tree with the golden leaves. Lovely photos.

    I really enjoy the photos Mary and Facebook was never doing a good job of showing them to me. I have the habit of dropping by and reading your blog every week or so. I look forward to seeing more. Hugs Leanna

    Pine cones and slanted building were my favorites, but all were very nice. You’re a great photographer Mary! What kind of camera did you say you’re using?

    You can really see the transition of the seasons in these photos. I love the snow, it’s not something I think of in your part of the world.

    These were marvelous shots. I’m very intrigued by the one image of the building with the sloping facade. I’ve never seen one like that.

    Apparently, I missed something. You now live in NYC, Mary? What a change! I’ve never been to Greece, but I can only imagine… I guess you now get fall and winter, though.
    I’m sorry to hear you will no longer be doing a photo of the day on facebook, but I completely understand. Social media is … complicated.
    I love your pinecone centerpiece! It’s so unique! And perfect for the season!

    Mary, I love your photos and that’s too bad that Facebook has changed it’s algorithm once again but I’m glad you’ll still be sharing your photos with us here. My favorite photo is probably the one of St. Patrick’s Cathedral, what gorgeous architecture!!
