Daily Photo ( Year 1) : The photo of the day!

This is my project where I post a photo taken that day to this "Daily Photo" gallery, which is linked to the Daily Photo community on Smugmug.

This project has been quite interesting for me and has had many benefits for me. I see more. I take better photos. I learn about photography. I have no training at all, so my technical skill is non existent, but I like to think I capture some interesting slices of life in our time. This was the firsy year of my daily photo project.

My Smug Mug : Someday I will take a decent photo of this angel. Trust me, it's not easy to do. First, there are the pigeons. It's also a few stories high so you're shooting up unless you take shots from the top of the stairs but then you need a zoom lens. The light is tough in the afternoon. One of these days, I'll have to go early in the morning and see what I can do.

Green-Wood Cemetery : "If the dead can come back to this earth and flit unseen around those they loved, I shall always be near you; in the garish day and in the darkest night-amidst your happiest scenes and gloomiest hours; always, always; and if there be a soft breeze upon your cheek, it shall be my breath; or the cool air fans your throbbing temple, it shall be my spirit passing by."

It is also known as the birthplace of Baseball and also of Frank Sinatra, who was born and raised in Hoboken. It is situated between the Lincoln and Holland Tunnels and has direct access to Manhattan via the PATH trains, a subway independent of the NYC Subway. Greenwich Village is 6 minutes on the train and the WTC site stop in the Wall Street area is 10 minutes via a different route.

Re-Opening of the WTC PATH in 2003 : The first PATH train from Hoboken to the WTC since 9/11/2001 was run on 11/23/2003. Since I was on the last PATH train from Hoboken to the WTC on 9/11/01, I made it a point to be on the first one to run to the new station. I took these photos on 11/23/03. The platforms are exactly where they were. In fact, although they were rebuilt, they were still standing under the rubble. 

In the 5 years since the station was reopened, PATH has done nothing at all to improve the station. The exit has been moved 3 times. There are no escalators from the platforms as there used to be, and there are no restrooms and no subway connections. It's a disgrace and a slap in the face to the tens of thousands who use the station every day.
