WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE: CLOSE
CLOSE is the theme for The Daily Post at WordPress.com. Â I was in New York City this past weekend so I thought I would share some up close and personal pictures of people I photographed there. Â Visit link above for other entries.
The city is a fascinating place to visit with some amazing sights to see.  Here are just three.  One sweet ( a couple in Central Park) one  maybe shocking to some (The Naked Cowboy) in Times Square and the third a toast to you for your visit to this site.  ENJOY!
 All week I will be sharing photos of my visit with you. Â
BE ENCOURAGED! Â BE BLESSED!
@Francine, The first photo makes me jealous
Well done with the theme WPC this time. Thanks for stopping in my blog
The second photo … ha ha … he’s handsome in his underwear
and the third photo … um … very fresh

When I saw the couple the scene just begged to be photographed. The second one, the cowboy begged me to photograph him. Fun time in NYC.

Love all three
Thanks for the toast Francine.

Seriously, the naked cowboy…too funny and love the last one! Yum!!

OH! That Naked Cowboy was something else. I had seen him on TV but didn’t dare think I would run into him.
fgassette - June 20, 2012 at 10:58 am |
Such a sweet first pic.
The naked cowboy……only in NYC. 
Cheers to you too, Francine. Have lots of fun.

NYC where you can find anything. It’s a fun city.

Having been in NYC just over a month ago I shall be watching this week with longing!
Jfb57 - June 18, 2012 at 3:11 pm |
Stay tuned. I have over 1,000 pictures to sort through.
fgassette - June 20, 2012 at 11:17 am |
There is only 1 NYC!
ChgoJohn - June 18, 2012 at 3:39 pm |
You are right, only one NYC. Had a wonderful time there.
fgassette - June 20, 2012 at 11:18 am |

I loved that photo of the couple as well.

I think everyone should experience New York City at least once, you will never forget it.
fgassette - June 21, 2012 at 9:13 am |

I really miss shooting in NYC.
themofman - June 19, 2012 at 9:47 pm |
I Loved it. Took over 1,000 pictures.
fgassette - June 20, 2012 at 11:20 am |
Close and exciting . My favorite are the two “love birds” on top of a rock. Whew!
island traveler - June 20, 2012 at 3:43 am |
The couple were my favorite as well.
fgassette - June 20, 2012 at 11:22 am |
First and second pic, what? Nice collection though.

Thank you for commenting.

I wonder if Naked Cowboy has become a franchise industry. This guy looks a lot younger that the Naked Cowboy I knew. Perhaps it’s NC, jr or the magic of cosmetic surgery?
atreegrowsinbklyn - June 20, 2012 at 11:50 pm |
I don’t know. I saw him on a TV news program a long time ago and was surprised that he still was out on the street. You maybe right about the franchise.

Love the couple and the toast. The naked cowboy is pretending too much, is isn’t naked at all
Madman - June 21, 2012 at 4:33 am |
I loved the couple as well. The cowboy was just putting on a show, I didn’t see or hear him play that guitar.
