Description
Christo and Jeanne-Claude's installation of The Gates in New York's central park in 2005 was spectacular. Here the gates go over the Gapstow Bridge. There were 7,500 gates lining virtually every walk way in the park. This public art installation drew thousands of people even on a cold February weekend.
One aspect of this image is the dormant buds that have the same color as the Gates themselves. Were they paying homage to the art work -- yes I think nature was bowing its head.

Thanks Adriana -- the buds did compliment Cristo and Jeanne-Claude's installation perfectly with no help from me.
