Nice even tones in this image. I bet this could look even more spectacular if there was less sky (more panoramic style).

I feel this composition would be more interesting if there were a bit more water and a bit less sky; nice tones in the buildings and sky though.

To me it looks so different without the twin towers. Guess I hadn't realized how far along they were on the Freedom tower. Nice exposure, tones, and lighting.

"re"-develop? one very late building (+ wtc 7 completed years ago). manhattan and even the outer boroughs have always "evolved", never needed "re" development. I like the emphasis on the sky here. very difficult shot as it is so common taken from the SI ferry or liberty island ferry. nyc not easy to capture with originality. gl.

This is a crisp and clear shot of a busy city but it doesn't really speak to me or keep my interest peaked. Sorry - I'm just not a city person I guess.
