New York Autumn - Central Park - Bow Bridge and the Lake

—

On autumn days

when grey skies

brush across the water

with icy fingertips

and tree branches

cling to their

tattered foliage

the wind plays

a lullaby

for summer:

a slow adagio

whose notes

linger

with a warm vibrato

on every fallen

leaf.

One of the most beautiful places in New York City to enjoy autumn is Central Park. With over 800 acres of a variety of natural landscapes, Central Park comes alive in the autumn as it prepares to hibernate for the winter.

This was taken on a moody autumn day with my Sony A99 while I was wandering around in The Ramble. The Ramble is a 38 acre woodland with meandering paths. If you follow it out towards some of the main paths, you will eventually come across this beautiful view of Bow Bridge.
