East River, NYC, Winter, 5:00 A.M., Roosevelt Island, New York City

About East River NYC Winter, 5:00 A.M., from Roosevelt Island One winter morning, I looked out my window, and there it was. Surreal, rich in color, like a painting. But it was real, and I got it.

A color-rich, realistic view as morning rises on a winter day along the East River in New York City. A fine art photographer’s dream come true.

Saturated color intensifies a day’s beginning. A ghost ship fades along the East River, passing Roosevelt Island. Light snow coats the terraces, and dim light silhouettes a woman starting her day.

You can find it on Etsy…

The perfect fine art photograph made itself.

This is an 8 1/2 X 11 giclee print, finished on museum quality, archival Epson paper. Printed and signed by photographer Deborah Julian.

At the Risk of Being Premature

At the Risk of Being Premature

Two women asked RIOC to consider the consequences before it was too late. The board listened, answered and kept moving.

On September 10, 2026, Roosevelt Island resident Melissa Bray stood before the Roosevelt Island Operating Corporation Board of Directors and asked them to think fifty years ahead. She had come because RIOC President B.J. Jones invited residents into the conversation about redesigning Blackwell Park. Bray wanted its mature trees protected, including a northern red oak dedicated to the wife of my friend David Kraut, a former board director.
