ROB YASINSAC NIGHT PHOTOGRAPHY

Tarrytown, NY


Irving Union Free School

    March 20?, 1997. Comet Hale Bopp at right. The old Pennybridge school is now a day care center. Comet Hale-Bopp was one of the brightest objects in the night sky in the spring of 1997. A full moon and a long exposure makes the scene appear to be daytime.

 

Mozartina Musical Arts Conservatory

    March 15, 2000. This 19th-century mansion is now a school for music instruction. Its twin mansion has been demolished and replaced with a temple. A gatehouse for the twin still stands on Broadway.

Philipsburg Manor (Sleepy Hollow)

    The Upper Mills was part of an eighteenth-century provisioning plantation owned by the wealthy Philipse family. Here enslaved Africans operated a grist mill, dairy, farm, bakehouse and sloops. for more information, visit Historic Hudson Valley - Philipsburg Manor.

Sunnyside

    Washington Irving helped make the Hudson Valley famous in the early nineteenth-century with The Legend of Sleepy Hollow and Rip Van Winkle. I hope that America's most famous teller of supernatural stories would appreciate this unusual view of his home. For more information, visit Historic Hudson Valley - Sunnyside. 

The Castle on the Hudson (Carrollcliffe)

    The Castle on the Hudson is a luxury resort hotel and restaurant located on a high promontory overlooking the Hudson River in Tarrytown. It was built between 1897 and 1910 by General Howard Carroll, who called his home Carrollcliffe. It was briefly a school, and was the office for Axe-Houghton for much of the latter half of the twentieth-century. I prefer the name they gave the place: Axe Castle. 


Lyndhurst, Tarrytown, NY, 
with Aurora Borealis, April 6, 2000.
Lyndhurst with
Aurora Borealis

    The photograph of Lyndhurst with the Aurora Borealis was made into a greeting card by Lyndhurst, a Property of the National Trust for Historic Preservation. It was also selected for Best Image of Interpreted National Historic Landmark. in the National Parks Service Photo Contest, July 4, 2000. A similar image was reproduced in Sky & Telescope Magazine.

     This photo and others on my web site are for sale. Prints are available in 8" x 10" format, full frame (meaning that the full frame of the slide/negative is printed, so that nothing is cropped. Thus the actual print size is slightly smaller than listed). Each print costs $65 US funds.
