Murray Building

Fall officially commenced yesterday (despite the Very Hot Weather Warning is still on), and this is the last post of the previous fall/spring sketching season.



I had worked at the Murray Building for several months, and then moved to the then Citibank Tower for several years, but I hadn’t noticed there was a Pink & White Shower tree back then. I was standing on the bridge that day, with heavy traffic underneath (and the bridge was somehow shaky), mosquito biting, and weather forecast of a serious thunderstorm on the way soon. I had no choice but to act quick, and I am more than satisfied for the result.

Rainy Sunday

Some flowers on rainy Sunday, especially for those who have been working hard to make the city back to normal.
