Capture taken during our last years visit to NYC. Leaving the hotel at Canal street, my plan was to see ground Zero at early hours. I liked the empty Church street with all these parcel cars and at the end the Oculus building with some fogs passing up from the subway station around there...gearing up for Chicago end of month..Thanks, Udo.
Wenn das Empire die Aussicht dominiert.
Das Empire State Building wurde am 1. Mai 1931 eröffnet und war zu dieser Zeit das höchste Gebäude der Welt. Es hat eine Gesamthöhe von 443,2 Metern (einschließlich der Antenne) und verfügt über 102 Stockwerke. Das Gebäude ist ein Wahrzeichen von New York City und ein ikonisches Symbol der Architektur des 20. Jahrhunderts.
Es wurde während der Bauarbeiten in der erstaunlich kurzen Zeit von nur 410 Tagen fertiggestellt und war das erste Gebäude, das mehr als 100 Stockwerke hatte. Die Beleuchtung des Empire State Building wird regelmäßig für besondere Anlässe und Feierlichkeiten geändert, was es zu einem dynamischen und farbenfrohen Bestandteil der New Yorker Skyline macht.

Des Touristen Fixpunkt.
Am 1. November 2005 wurde nach fast 20 Jahren die Aussichtsplattform im 70. Stockwerk des damaligen GE Building im Rockefeller Center unter dem Namen Top of the Rock wiedereröffnet.
Pretty sure I harass the same 3-4 vendors every time I find myself in Chinatown. Their arrangements are so...inviting with all those colors textures and shapes. Just hoping one day they don't all turn on me in a United Front! On a side note what is with those prices!!!!

The golden crowned building is the New York Life Building (1926).The New York Life Building was designed with Gothic Revival details. The tower is 40 stories tall, consisting of 34 office stories topped by a pyramidal, gilded six-story roof. At the time of the building's construction, many structures were being built in the Art Deco style, and so Gilbert's design incorporated Art Deco influences in its massing while retaining the older-style Gothic Revival detailing. The roof itself consists of 25,000 gold-leaf dipped terracotta tiles produced by Ludowici, with a fineness of 22 karats.The roof was originally gold leaf on a copper base, but due to copper corrosion, the roof was subsequently renovated in 1967 and 1995.At the top, a lantern rises another 57 feet (17 m) and serves as the ventilation outflow.
The black building behind is 41 Madison Avenue.
On the far right is the The Metropolitan Life Insurance Company Tower (1909). The South Building's tower was designed by the architectural firm of Napoleon LeBrun & Sons and erected between 1905 and 1909. Inspired by St Mark's Campanile, the tower features four clock faces, four bells, and lighted beacons at its top, and was the tallest building in the world until 1913. The tower originally included Metropolitan Life's offices, and since 2015, it has contained a 273-room luxury hotel known as the New York Edition Hotel.
Wow! I found this in my photo stash. This photo was taken nine years ago in one my trips to the Big Apple. Shot using my first DSLR - a Sony Alpha-300.
Shot of the Brooklyn Bridge and the Manhattan Bridge behind it. Towards the center of the shot in red, white, blue is the Empire State Building

Another shot from last night's super moon event. Again, I ended up taking two shots, one exposing for the moon, and another exposing for the foreground and then merging the two in CS5.
The cool thing about last night as you watched the moon come up was that at the beginning the moon had an orange hue to it as it came above the horizon and it looked big. But as it rose into the night sky it became smaller, whiter and brighter.
Really was a very cool event to witness and document.
