Print of the Month for June, 2009: Penelope

A very wet spring here in New York City has brought us an abundance of green, which I am pleased to share with you in this print of the month. This photograph was taken at Fort Tilden, a former Army base in the Rockaways. With spectacular views of the ocean, dunes, and a maritime forest, it is a wonderful place to enjoy some time outdoors. It can be quite a surprise, however, to be out for a walk in the woods and come upon a decommissioned military structure like this one. I’m happy to report that it has been converted into a birdwatching platform.
