Big 🍎 It’s been a week since I returned home from my whirlwind work trip to New York and I’m only just catching my breath. I’m so grateful to have been able to have a few play days - it was NYE 1999 that I was last in New York and so much has changed! Or not. This time I checked out the view from the Top of the Rock at sunset, along with 2 billion other tourists with the same idea 🙄 If you’re desperate to do the same my tip is get in early, stake a claim and be prepared to bunker in for a wait - take snacks! . . . . #topoftherock #newyorkcity #newyork #lovenewyork #visitusa #usa #openmyworld #myworldoftravel #escapesnaps #travel #travelphotography #travelinsporation #travelawesome

ESB in all her glory 🙌🏻 The Empire State Building is such a Manhattan icon - any time I catch a glimpse of her I get a little ‘I’m in New York!’ thrill. I’d also put the Flatiron and the Chrysler Building in that category but sadly I haven’t had a chance to capture them so ESB will have to do. Do you have a favourite NYC icon? . . . . #visitusa #newyorkcity #topoftherock #empirestatebuilding #manhattan #openmyworld #myworldoftravel #imagesofnyc #iamatraveler #tlpicks #canonaustralia #bbctravel #escapesnaps #visittheusa

Rocking the Top of the Rock It’s definitely a tourist scrum, especially at sunset, but look at that view 😍. I started off 3 deep with elbows to my back and head from people taking photos over their heads and then eventually worked my way to the front for a prime view - what do you reckon, worth it or not?? . . . . . #topoftherock #newyorkcity #visitusa #openmyworld #iamatraveler #escapesnaps #myworldoftravel #canonaustralia #canon70d #usa

Where in the world... You’d be forgiven for thinking this is a bridge in the middle of Ireland, but it’s right in Central Park New York. I had a wonderful few hours strolling through the park today, what a magnificent use of public space! . . . #centralpark #newyorkcity #bigapple #socialjetset🌸 #escapesnaps #openlyworld #visitusa

Insane 🤯 That’s pretty much what I’d be if I had to spend a minute longer in this seething mass of over tourism. Times Square seems to have become a victim of its own popularity. There are some amazing sights and experiences in New York City but Times Square on a Saturday night is not one of them! Of course that’s just me, there are people who love this kind of crazy - what do you think? . . . . . #timessquare #overtourism #newyorkcity #visitusa #usa #newyork #manhattan #socialjetset🌸 #canonaustralia

I’m in a New York state of mind I have a couple of days in New York to play before I have to work, yay! We arrived last night and had a wander around our neighbourhood- this is Bryant Park, a few blocks from our hotel. Such a great atmosphere! People were watching a performance on stage, kids were learning to juggle, there a carousel going and all with the quintessential NYC backdrop - the Empire State Building. . . . . #newyorkcity #empirestatebuilding #bryantpark #openmyworld #socialjetset🌸 #escapesnaps #bigapple

Reverse sunset Well the sun is almost setting on my Lady Elliot Island shots (although I can’t guarantee a wee turtle or random shot won’t turn up again sometime!) and I’m about to head off on an exciting work adventure!! Very fortunately I’ll have some play time first up so watch this space, see you on the flip side! . . .. #ladyelliotisland #southerngreatbarrierreef #greatbarrierreef #seeaustralia #thisisqueensland #australia #queensland #canonaustralia #canon70d #openmyworld #socialjetset🌸

More snurtling action 🐢🥽 There’s something I find really cathartic about drifting along in the water and checking out a completely different world. Even better when one of the residents lets you come along for the ride for a while. Check out the reef below this guy, no wonder he loved @ladyelliotislandecoresort ! . . . . #turtle #underwaterimages #goproanz #goprohero7black #southerngreatbarrierreef #greatbarrierreef #ladyelliotisland #seeaustralia #thisisqueensland #queensland #australia #bbcearth #natgeowild

That time I dawdled at sunset thinking it wasn’t going to pop and then I saw this so I almost pulled a hammie getting around to the other side of the island and then it fizzed 🙄. The trials and tribulations of being on holiday 🤣 . . . #ladyelliotisland #southerngreatbarrierreef #greatbarrierreef #seeaustralia #thisisqueensland #australia #queensland #canonaustralia #canon70d #escapesnaps
