This is the sun setting on the New Jersey Turnpike. It is beautiful!
The Financial District of New York City and the new World One Tower. This was taken from Liberty Park in New Jersey.
The Statue of Liberty! Also taken from Liberty Park in New Jersey. We could not actually visit the Statue of Liberty because she is currently closed because of the destruction from Hurricane Sandy.

Here is Hartford, CT after a light snowy dusting!
Again Hartford the capitol of CT!
Next PhotoPlanning Services Travel will be Kim to Italy!
