View from High Line Park (New York City)
----
As I stood at the current end of the High Line--two or three stories above 30th St.--(the park is still being extended), I was struck by this view. Except for the big crane, that seems to "belong" BELOW the bridge, the views above and below seem SO Different.
----
Well, it IS a strange illusion, because the scene below the bridge is nearby, and the scene above the bridge is more distant (except for the crane, of course and the "Zebra" thing).

(If you haven't seen Bob Cammarata's latest "Relentless Pursuit" tale, you're missing a GEM. Google "fish tales relentless" to find it.)
