    This strikes such a chord! Delicious irony, and a telling lesson for us all.

    Sad times in NYC.

    Oh, I love this photo – a sign of the times! I like how the lion is masked too – reminds me that we’re strong and will get through this – and meaningful placement of the flag. An excellent capture, well done.

    Good catch here, Ellen! I like the lion and his friend looking off in different directions. Social distancing at its best. Well done!

    This photo brings to mind two thoughts: Larger than life, and, We’re all in this together.

    Sometimes it takes Fortitude
    To do the task
    To wear the mask
    Caring for one another
    That’s all we ask….

    What a poignant image of isolation and a powerful role model! (I wish the young man’s mask covered his nose!)

  8. Bernice says:

    You’ve captured a major sign of our times (even the improper mask wearing)! The American flag is dwarfed by the mask wearing lion, which seems appropriate too. Well done!

    Very powerful image. Sad statement at the same time. The masked inanimate object wears its mask better than the majority of the human population. SMH. I love this picture!

    A bit of light-hearted humor that made me smile. Thanks! I wonder where they found a mask large enough to fit the lion.

    A sad reminder of what we are living through. Pray the new vaccine will end it all and we can go back to normal.

    I’m reading Lions of Fifth Avenue right now. I wonder what Laura Lyons would think of her beloved Library now.

    I love the whimsy of this picture. There’s not much about Covid-19 to evoke a smile.
