The Peekskill Waterfront abounds with lots of artworks. I’ve taken pictures of most of them during earlier visits, so I didn’t bother this time. I’d taken a picture of this one before too, but that time I’d taken a picture of the full artwork with the Hudson in the background (see picture below). This time, however, I decided to put my head inside and see what kind of picture I could get…maybe something a bit more abstract?
