Park shots...

There's a cliff-front park (Hamilton Park) that runs parallel to the Hudson River in Weehawken that we usually drive by on the way to Mitsuwa. Never actually stopped to take a look until today. Thought I'd take the Sigma 70-200 out for a test run. While the view of Manhattan is quite nice and the park itself is pretty nice and clean (no dogs allowed), there weren't too many interesting things to take pics of unfortunately across the river. This telezoom isn't ideal for panaroma shots plus being there at around 2 in the afternoon gave the scene a rather bright, washed out cast.

War Monument

It did have a war monument (Korean & Vietnam) there.

Bell

And a monument for the local fire department.

The park is quite popular with weddings as we often saw brides, grooms and bridesmaids stop off in the area for pictures. One such party showed up while I was there and I was tempted to try to surreptitiously snap some shots but that's rather hard to do when you have such a big honking lens in your hands.
