Lens-Artists Challenge #164 – Looking Up/Down…

Posted on September 6, 2021 by mvobsession | Comments Off

Another fun challenge.

I think one of my favorite photos for ‘up’ is of my friend during a tour at the Breakers mansion in Newport, RI.

Among some other choices for ‘up’ are the Chrysler building, the Empire State building and the statue of Atlas at Rockefeller Center in NYC.

The choices for ‘down’ are the Great Falls in Paterson NJ, the Walkway Over the Hudson in NY, view from High Point State Park in NJ towards NY, park stairs, Newport mansion stairs, view from Gay Head lighthouse (on MV) looking down on the cliffs.

Public art is which encompasses any form of art you see in a public place, large or small, statues, murals, graffiti, gardens, Christmas lights, even buildings or bridges. The art should be visible from streets, sidewalks or outdoor public places. I chose to post photos from the list below.

Graffiti
Statues and Sculptures
Murals
Transportation
Car Shows
Artistic Construction (Bridge, benches and buildings)
Wall Art

Bridges…George Washington Bridge and the Brooklyn Bridge
