(My New York Minutes 3)
If there was one thing that I was consciously aiming for this NY trip was snapping as much skywatch entries as possible. I honestly did not think we would have time to go to Manhattan due to our tight schedule and short stay, so the minute the taxi when into motion, so did my shutter. Here's one of those drive by shots where I watched the blue skies through the still bare limbs. I saw the birds after I uploaded the images on my PC.

Looks like some gorgeous skies for sightseeing.
Such tranquility, and love the thinness of the limbs.
Your drive-by shots turn out so well!
This is fantastic, I love the angle.
Have a great weekend

Great photo!!
Happy SWF
Great perspective!
Manhattan - I wouldn't have imagined this one green. :)
My post is here: Carletta’s Captures.
Lovely! the trees look like lace.
You have done well to capture this from a moving vehicle. The sky and cloud through the branches is soft and muted.
Lovely.
Nice shot and I'm with you on the drive-by's. Sometimes it's your only chance to get pictures and then you're pleasantly surprised! Good job!
That's a drive by shot! Really Sharp shooting.Adds to the adrenalin sometimes the mystery of what you may have snapped. I've a tribute tonight to a NY blogger who has just closed his blog.
Great drive by shot and what a nice bonus to get the birds in it.
Great whith the trees!
Beautiful picture ! ! !

I like your NY minute very much!
beautiful capture...always love sky through the branches...gives it a special quality :)
have a lovely weekend.
You put your time to good use!
Talk about the "big picture" - your photo has so many interesting levels...trees, birds, homes, and, of course, sky!
beautiful composition!
Sky and trees in a lovely landscape!

Isn't it fun to find something unexpected after taking a photo. I really like the delicate, budding tree limbs against the light blue sky.
Nice shot...I like the uphill view...hard to believe it's a drive by shot...so clear...
We see so much of Manhattan on the news that it is interesting to see another side of New York.
Very nice Picture;)
Have a nice weekend;)
Fun photo that looks pretty good for a drive by, nice to spy glimpses of blue skies in between a busy day. Thanks for sharing with sky watch friday.
Beautiful view. Great sky, tree and birds shot.

Like the thin hair of lolas :) Love this one.
Such a pretty shot! I love the trees and sky but the row of houses is just beautiful.
The birds are a nice touch-- I love getting a 'surprise' when I load the photos into the computer, and I see something there that I didn't see through the camera. So I smiled to read your comment there.
A picture that makes you happy!
Beautiful, complete with birds and all.
That's a great drive by shot! What a lot of trees there are there. It must be so nice and shady in the summertime when they're all full of leaves. Looks like you made the most of your New York Minutes!
It's an impressive shot, it's not how one would frame it when standing there, no it's much better, fresh, original.
This is a great photo...Great angle. It makes me homesick :) Have a terrific weekend!
Lovely combo of tree shapes there. Happy weekend to you!
Beautiful sky shot. Love those blue skies.
They are beautiful big trees. I guess the birds were just watching you and your camera drive by...
Good one.

I love the trees still bare but dreaming of unfolding... wonderful photos of the trees and sky... Really like your blog layout also, I tried to change mine today ....Lovely Sky Watch.... have a great weekend.... cheers
The bare branches have their own beauty.
PC: Neat shot of the sky with the birds in the tree.
I like this shot with the row of houses peeking over the hillside.
I've really enjoyed your New York series!
About Joy, I can't display anymore her blog Norwich Daily Photo: I know you follow it daily, can you display it?
Have a great weekend!
Really great shot for being on the move.
The trees add art to the sky above them :)
I really like the angle you took this shot at.
The blue sky peeping through the branches of the trees...
Very nice capture..
this is such a soothing image!
Nice picture for only 3 minutes of stay!!! Well done, love the three!!
Have a nice SWF
Greetings from NL
This is a very beautiful photo, like the perspective.

Oh I love those birdies! I was not successful in taking them with mine.
How cute and adorable to see them!

i can see the blue sky and the clouds! and the birds resting too! such a lovely weather!
It's really beautiful to see the white and blue sky shine through the trees. You're demonstrating that drive by pictures can be very nice.
Enjoy your weekend!
A fine drive-by shot with excellent sharpness and detail. I like the happy accidental recording of the birds in the tree. Fine shot.
But the trees are bear? When did you take this one? :)
Nice shot. I noticed the birds almost right away but if I'd taken this I don't think I would have noticed them until I got home too.
Good work rapid shooter.
You were lucky to catch it nicely sharp and without blur. Thanks for visiting me as well! Canarybird.
Great shot of a lovely day.
I love drive-by shots - there's always something unexpected in them.
I'm surprised the trees are still so bare.
they actually look like those trees in the lord of the rings. only now standing along with houses.
