Since I am having trouble getting out to roam the city and take pictures, I thought I'd return us to the upstairs subway platform at AMNH for a couple days to look at a few pieces that I haven't yet shared with you.
Solar system
as portrayed in tiles on the stairway leading down into the NYC subway stop (A-B-C)
at 81st and Central Park West. (ISO, no zoom, no flash).

The lighting over this landing makes this mosaic difficult to photograph, unfortunately, since it is quite interesting to look at in real life.

Thanks a lot for all the subway art you post! I haven't commented on any of your posted subway art before and just wanted to let you know that it is appreciated. I live no where near NYC so it is especially nice to be able to enjoy the artwork on your blog.
