Canary Wharf tube station is a London Underground station on the Jubilee Line, between Canada Water and North Greenwich. It is in Travelcard Zone 2 and was opened by Ken Livingstone setting an escalator in motion on 17 September 1999[4] as part of the Jubilee Line Extension. It is maintained by Tube Lines. Over 40 million people pass through the station each year, making it the busiest station on the London Underground outside Central London, and also the busiest which only serves a single line (the DLR station is completely separate).
Before the arrival of the Jubilee Line, London's Docklands had suffered from relatively poor public transport. Although the Docklands Light Railway station at Canary Wharf had been operating since 1987, by 1990 it was already obvious that the DLR's capacity would soon be reached. The Jubilee Line's routing through Canary Wharf was intended to relieve some of this pressure.
The tube station was intended from the start to be the showpiece of the Jubilee Line Extension, and its design was awarded in 1990 to the renowned architect Sir Norman Foster. It was constructed, by a Tarmac Construction / Bachy UK Joint Venture,[5] in a drained arm of the former dock, using a simple "cut and cover" method to excavate an enormous pit 24 metres (78 ft) deep and 265 metres (869 ft) long. The resulting large volume of the interior has led to it being compared to a cathedral, and it has even been used to celebrate a wedding. However, the main reason for the station's enormous proportions was the great number of passengers predicted; as many as 50,000 daily. These predictions have been outgrown, with as many as 69,759 on weekdays recorded in 2006.[6]
Here is the first shot of an upcoming series of this building in destruction. Be ready for the following pictures!!
This is a blend of 8 RAW together (-4,-3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3) to get all the details of this complex scene with a lot of contrast and difference of luminosity.
Please leave me some feedback!! Thank you! :)
Top of Empire State Building - New York City 2010
O Empire State Building é um arranha-céu de 102 andares de estilo Art déco localizado na intersecção da 5ª Avenida com a West 34th Street na cidade Nova York.
Seu nome deriva do apelido do estado de Nova York. Foi considerada uma das estruturas mais altas do mundo por mais de quarenta anos, desde a sua conclusão em 1931 até que a construção da Torre Norte do World Trade Center foi concluída em 1972. Logo após a destruição do World Trade Center em 2001, o Empire State Building recebeu novamente o título de edifício mais alto de Nova York.
A previsão é que seja superado pela Freedom Tower, em 2011. Este novo edifício e todo o resto do complexo, denominado Novo World Trade Center, está sendo construído no antigo terreno do World Trade Center.

Yes, getting up at 4:30 am on a weekend is no fun, unless you get to witness an amazing sunrise colors at the Golden Gate bridge. This was taken today from the Marin Headlands overlook. I have a few more to process that are not a 3 minute exposure frames like this one, but liked the clean look in this image, so.... Enjoy :)
PS - pls Check out another one from this morning here:
