Looking back at Liberty Island from Ellis Island. I'm thinking the evening light may be better, but what the hey? We got what we got. I'm sure many a person processed through the hall behind us saw a very similar sight (sans helicopter for sure) and wondered what the future would bring for them. It's also an aspect of the statue that I don't recall seeing very often, so I'm shooting for some points for originality (of sorts). Thank you all who commented on this series so far. I hope I can keep your attention as we wander about for the next few days. On a more personal note; a Happy New Year to all members of the R community. This should be an interesting year on many levels. Enjoy; thanks for viewing.
