NYC: Thoughts of a Chess Piece

I took this one a month or two back in Central Park. It's a beautiful place to just go and relax. In good weather, the park is bustling with activity. I have yet to go there in the winter, but I'd imagine that there are still the fair share of bikers and runners.

C&C is greatly appreciated, thanks!

This one was manually focused. I know the random chess piece is going to get to some.
