Great job. I know the building and assumed the photographer lived in NYC, but I should have recognized the beautiful tone work as yours! Remarkable how much the photo is complemented by using the letterbox frame.

Interesting angle & lighting.
Post actions
What a great angle! Good job!
Post actions
Voted earlier coming back now to leave comments. The angle you took this shot at really gives the viewer a sense of smallness. These buildings tower over us/me as I look up to get the full view and spectrum of this building. The building gives the aspect of being very imposing to us tiny humans that stand at it's feet. The widescreen cinema crop just helps add to this feeling. I also want to add that the B&W tones are absolutely fabulous!
Post actions
Fantastic light and you caught a fantastic black and white shot! This is great! Detail all the way to the top too!
Post actions

I dont know if it is a bank or not, it looks like it. A symbolic image of the doom that these banks have brought upon this world. Great work. Love the B&W conversion.
