There are a lot of good things about photography. It's a tool you can use to meet interesting people. You get to be creative. But by far the most important part of it is that it forces you to get your ass out the door when you otherwise wouldn't.

Happy snowstorm everyone.

Double Rainbow over Central Park

And a single one across the sky. Sometimes you're just in the right place at the right time. The planetarium and Natural History Museum are on the right.

The Natural History Museum. I actually prefer this shot the most. As a child I remember going into the huge halls and seeing the dinosaurs and whales. I get nostalgic whenever I pass by it and this was the first time that I've ever seen it from above.

Screens, Central Park South

There really is no place left on Earth where you can get kids to put their cellphones in their pockets.

Vintage Friday - Old Central Park

http://www.jamesmaherphotography.com/images/0000/3047/1-boat_house_central_park.jpg

Boathouse, 1900-1909.

I love looking at old photographs of Central Park. So much of it looks exactly the same and so much (including the outfits) looks completely different.

These are courtesy of the New York Public Library's Digital Archive.

The Spa, Pre-1900.

I love old maps! 1863.

Did parents really allow their children to roll around in the park in these outfits? 1871.

The Arsenal and Zoo. Undated.

'Boys' Playground', 1904.

Married Under the Bethesda Terrace Arch, Central Park

I photographed a wonderful couple from Montreal yesterday, who traveled to the city to be married under the arch in Bethesda Terrace. Such a magical location to get married.

This was my favorite photograph of the day.
