Happy New Year! Hope this finds you well, and perhaps more rested and relaxed after the holidays.

It’s a new year, and here, in the New York City area, Times Square is considered, by many, “the” place to be and experience the turn of the year.

And so today, I’d like to share with you a Times Square composite created over the years, from images captured at the NYC Pride March, fireworks celebrations, and, of course, Times Square, itself.

The image has been featured in several photography shows in the area, including the (then) annual Fresh Fruit art festivals at the Leslie-Lohman Museum of Art.

I believe it’s an image about a moment of celebrating love, hope, and perhaps second chances that some might wish to find in the Bright Lights of a Big City.

I hope that 2024 will bring you all more love, health, celebrations, and dreams come true. I hope that the New Year will be a kinder and more peaceful year for us all.

As always, thanks for stopping by,

Alina Oswald
