blowin' in the wind

We made our second and final visit to see The Gates today in Central Park. On our first trip last weekend, my camera's battery died after my first shot. This time around, the whole excursion was meticulously documented.
To be honest, I'm still trying to formulate a coherent opinion about the artwork itself. I do appreciate the scope of the project, and I refuse to criticize it the way some surly locals have.
At the same time, did they have to choose safety-cone orange? I'm partial to the idea of a lovely marigold yellow myself.
