Chives flowering in the herb garden. Trippy to look at, but as names go, not nearly as much fun to say as the other plants up there, including: Our Lady's Bedstraw, Fuller's Teasel, Feverfew and Mallow (both Marsh and regular.)

Less impressive when tweaked with the stained glass function in Photoshop. (Ancient French architecture is so impervious to meta humor.)

Taken in one of the chapels at the Cloisters, and not a commentary on religion.

Little sis was in town, the weather was perfect, and so to the Cloisters we went.

Another Tribeca souvenir. From the "Mad Hot Ballroom" party- two of the stars of the film. I will refrain from posting any evidence of me doing the tango with a 9 year old.
