TAMA: My editor suggested checking out The Gates close to dusk, I headed out to the park around 4:00 pm and found a soft late afternoon light and melted snow from a weekend storm which created a nice reflection.

"The Gates" project by artists Christo and Jeanne-Claude opened in Central Park on Saturday, February 12, 2005. The long awaited work consisted of over 7,500 gates that snaked through 23 miles of the parks walkways. In all, the installation was on view for 16 days, till February 27, 2005.
