Photo of the Day: Enjoying a Day at the High Line

This is the third in a series of photos I took while at the High Line in late December. The first of these, in my blog on Saturday, was from my perspective looking north from the 20^th Street entrance onto this relatively new public park on Manhattan’s West Side. The second, from yesterday, captured the landscape looking east from that vantage point.

What I like about this one is the freshness and innocence of these young kids, particularly in their hug. (For the last week or so, anyone hugging in the park is less likely to do so out of sheer exuberant affection and more because of the need to stay relatively warm amid the single-digit temperatures and biting winds.)
