Fotos on the fly – The Westchester River Walk by Hudson Harbor – Tarrytown NY

It was nice to see that the rain that was literally drenching the area had come to an end.  Friday – was a blustery March day with both clouds and sun.  Luckily, I was able to enjoy a bit of a walk with my camera in tow.  I had an errand at Hudson Harbor and decided to take a walk on the new portion of the Westchester River Walk in Tarrytown NY.   The River Walk is an ambitious plan to create a linear park and walking trail along the Hudson River that extends from the northern tip of the county in Peekskill to Yonkers at the border of the Bronx.  This portion has just been constructed.  I was there a couple of years ago before the plan had come to life.

I was lucky enough to get the New York City Skyline with the base of the Tappan Zee Bridge serving as a “frame.  Looking north I got a nice photo of  the Lighthouse and then the picture of the pathway that will eventually span the county.

Wonderful pictures.  So glad the weather is starting to get better here.  Can't wait until the roads are all cleared up, esp Bronx River and Saw Mill.

Those are wonderful photos, Ruthmarie!  It sounds like a great plan they have with the park and walkway - what a great way to spend some time on a March afternoon!

Hi Debbie - Glad you liked them - but we  NEED the BRP, Saw Mill etc.  The traffic jams on Friday were not fun.   Everyone crowding onto what little roadway was free and clear.  UGH.

 

Hi Carol -  In the larger photo w high resolution you could easily see the GW.... The TZ is in need of TLC right now!

 

Hi Lessa - I used a 250 mm zoom for the Light house and the skyline.  It was worth the effort to bring out the lenses and go for a walk with them!
