This week artist, Suzanne Miller, is Paula’s guest at Thursday’s Special, and she has challenged us to think and look at our photographs in a more abstract way. This photo was taken after a trip to the New York Ballet at the Lincoln Centre. I’m rather fond of ballet, and had been very much looking forward to the show, but after the first forty minutes, I was so bored I succumbed to rather more than forty winks. It was far more exciting out on Broadway.

Fun! 🙂
🙂 Oh dear, if you got bored with ballet, I’d better skip it too. These are fun, Tish. I really enjoy your entry. Thank you.
Thank you, Paula.
Wonderful images, filled with abstraction:)
Very interesting Tish, you look to be standing in the middle of the road to catch this colourful image. Look out for that car!!!!!
The dance of life is captured well in your abstract impression of life in New York 🙂 What a colourful and energetic response to the challenge – I’m so glad you joined in.
I like that, Suzanne – the dance of life – especially after the dancing had sent me to sleep (which I have to say I was not expecting).
it was your writing about the dancing that prompted me to think of the phrase. 🙂
I love the NY City Ballet. I grew up with it and after that, no other ballet quite makes the grade. AND I love Lincoln Center. And I LOVE your picture.
I think we were unlucky with that night’s program. After a wonderful Prodigal Son, it was all downhill. A New York friend, who had always keen supporter, thought the director at the time (ant it’s a few years ago now) had a lot to do with the loss of their former edge.
I’m not a fan of the ballet, but I do love your exciting and colourful Broadway show, Tish. 🙂
Great photo!

Very creative Tish!
Such an excellent interpretation Tish. You are so creative. 😀 ♥
Lovely of you to say so, Sonel.
Nice photo Tish
How disappointing for you. I too love the ballet but avoid modern as it can put me to sleep too.
Hi Tish, I saw your entry at Paula’s blog, as I joined the challenge.
It is a stunning photo and your narrative is enticing. Thanks.
Thanks for your comments, Lucile 🙂
You’re welcome, Tish.
maybe my tribute to Manhattan (using the lyrics of Ferlinghetti) helps to relax; you need not dance to this, give your flowers some water instead!
your Frits, singing:
I think your soundtrack definitely adds to my photo, Frizz 😀
