    Enjoyed seeing all of these, but the black and white subway shot is outstanding! Thanks for sharing!

    My thoughts exactly!

    I'm glad you got to Ellis Island - I think it's my absolute favorite of the "musts" for a visit to NYC, and I never tire of the exhibits there.

    Looks like a great trip!

    Nice vacation snaps. The subway image is by far the best of the batch; I'd like to have seen more images of the family members actually doing things. As to the Statue of Liberty...A good take on an old standard, though if we'd seen a bit of the base, it would have been clearer that it's the 'real thing,' rather than a plastic version somewhere. :D

    The "Subway Shot" is a very strong image IMO. It really holds the viewer.
