Something a little different..
Front Facade of Kykuit, the John D. Rockefeller Estate
Source (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kykuit)
Kykuit (/ˈkaɪkʌt/ KEYE-kut),[3] also known as John D. Rockefeller Estate, is a 40-room National Trust house in Westchester County, New York, built by oil tycoon, Capitalist and Rockefeller family patriarch John D. Rockefeller. Largely conceived by his son, John D. Rockefeller, Jr., and enriched by the art collection of third-generation scion, Governor of New York and Vice President of the United States, Nelson A. Rockefeller, it has been home to four generations of the family.
"Kykuit", Dutch for "lookout",[3] is situated on the highest point in the hamlet of Pocantico Hills, overlooking the Hudson River at Tappan Zee. Located near Tarrytown and Sleepy Hollow, it enjoys a view of the New York City skyline twenty-five miles to the south.

The Rockefeller Centre late on a perfect spring time Sunday morning..
Looks best up large on black.
Comments as always appreciated, but please no flashy award codes.
This was where I went to take some of my first test shots with the Sigma 10mm fisheye. First of all, the ultra wide angle was a challenge to shoot and compose with, but the fisheye distortion was really a trip to see firsthand. It was a great challenge to photography with the bright sunlight coming in through the windows on the right side of the image.
Taken 12 April 2007, Cleveland's Rockefeller Park Greenhouse. 200 macro on tripod, if I remember correctly.
The autumn color was just beginning when I visited Rockefeller State Park the other week. There was enough color along the Pocantico River for some pretty reflections.
Manhattan is the most densely populated borough of New York City, its economic and administrative center, and its historical birthplace.Locally it is often referred to simply as The City. The borough is coextensive with New York County, founded on November 1, 1683, as one of the original counties of the U.S. state of New York. The borough consists mostly of Manhattan Island, bounded by the Hudson, East, and Harlem rivers; several small adjacent islands; and Marble Hill, a small neighborhood now on the U.S. mainland, physically connected to the Bronx and separated from the rest of Manhattan by the Harlem River.
Manhattan is often described as the cultural, financial, media, and entertainment capital of the world, and the borough hosts the United Nations Headquarters. Anchored by Wall Street in the Financial District of Lower Manhattan, New York City has been called both the most economically powerful city and the leading financial center of the world, and Manhattan is home to the world's two largest stock exchanges by total market capitalization: the New York Stock Exchange and NASDAQ. Many multinational media conglomerates are based in Manhattan, and the borough has been the setting for numerous books, films, and television shows. Manhattan is historically documented to have been purchased by Dutch colonists from Native Americans in 1626 for 60 guilders, which equals US$1050 today. (borrowed from Wikipedia)
This shot was of one of the walls inside Rockefeller Center when travelling to the "Top of the Rock" observation stand in Manhattan, New York.

New York City's Rockefeller Center rises 70 stories ... well above the famous xmas tree which barely makes it into the frame on the lower left.
Windy night ... impossible to photo a non-blurry tree. But the building hardly seemed to move at all. :-)

Rockefeller Chapel is an impressive structure that stands out even among all the other beautiful architecture along the campus of the University of Chicago. This image was gathered during a night out with Brian Koprowski and his wife. We had been shooting inside the old Theological Seminary (my go-to spot) but we noticed the great colors and cloud cover outside. So we made the most of it and ventured here to snap as many shots as we could, although I for some reason opted for a 5 minute long exposure.
Is the tower fairly straight?

I know this shot has been done before but I couldn't help but try to emulate when I was in Rockefeller a few weeks back. I was disappointed in the alignment of images for this pano that most of the bottom of the frames was not included...i am not well versed in creating panoramas. Either way, I think this image displays the enormity and beauty of Rockefeller Chapel. This was composed of 4 or 5 frames (I forget) with three exposures each, tonemapped, and then merged within PS CS5. I'll be back to try this one again...
