I seem to be developing a thing for these 'mid-70s AMC Matadors. They're so hard to find now, whenever I see one I just gotta shoot it. Night, 79-seconds of full moon, hand-lit with love, 4 colors of light laid from 6 angles, direct, bounced and snooted, using the Protomachines flashlight.
The Oculus is a shopping mall at the World Trade Centre complex in Manhattan, New York, USA.
Opening in 2016 as the largest shopping complex in Manhattan, it contains 125 retail spaces.
It replaced the Mall at the World Trade Centre - the underground shopping mall under the original World Trade Centre, which was destroyed on September 11, 2001.
Positioned by Daniel Libeskind as part of the World Trade Centre masterplan and designed by Santiago Calatrava.
The structure's white metal-clad steel ribs reach up and out in a monumental move symbolic of a hand releasing a dove.

The $4 billion Oculus station house, designed by Santiago Calatrava, consists of white ribs that interlock high above the ground. The interior of the station house contains two underground floors, which house part of the Westfield World Trade Center mall. The transportation hub connects the various modes of transportation in Lower Manhattan, from the Fulton Center in the east to the Battery Park City Ferry Terminal in the west, through the station house. The hub contains connections to various New York City Subway stations, including Chambers Street–World Trade Center/Park Place/Cortlandt Street on the 2, 3, A, C, E, N, R, and W trains and WTC Cortlandt on the 1 train. It is the fifth-busiest transportation hub in the New York metropolitan area.

The “Oculus” serves as the centerpiece of the World Trade Center Transportation Hub, incorporating 78,000 square feet of multi level state-of-the-art retail and dining. The concourses emanating from the Oculus link the entirety of the site above and below grade. With an additional 290,000 square feet of exciting, multi-level retail and dining space, the World Trade Center site is the focal point of Lower Manhattan.
Visión personal del interior de la arquitectura llamada The Oculus, un vanguardista proyecto del arquitecto español Santiago Calatrava, para una enorme estación de metro y centro comercial subterraneo, que se ubicó en la zona cero junto al World Trade Center...Esta composición es un montaje con dos imágenes diferentes capturadas dentro de esa arquitectura. Una es un lateral de la estructura visto desde el interior de la bóveda, y la otra un reflejo deformado por la textura de un adorno navideño, ubicado sobre el suelo de esa misma bóveda.....Imaginé la composición a modo de un gran ojo en relación con el nombre del lugar......Pero cada cual puede ver esta idea como mejor crea
The most expensive subway station in the world.
World Trade Center is a terminal station in Lower Manhattan for PATH rail service. It was originally opened on July 19, 1909, as Hudson Terminal, but was torn down, rebuilt as World Trade Center, and re-opened July 6, 1971. Following the September 11, 2001 attacks, a temporary station opened in 2003. This station serves as the terminus for the Newark – World Trade Center and Hoboken – World Trade Center routes. The main station house, the Oculus, opened on March 4, 2016, and the terminal was renamed the World Trade Center Transportation Hub, or World Trade Center for short. "Wikipédia"
The Oculus, the new train station in New York City, is a connection hub between New Jersey's Path trains and New York City's subways.
Said to be the 3rd largest train station in New York City after Grand Central Terminal and Penn Station. It is projected that the station will be used by 250,000 daily commuters and millions of annual visitors from around the world.
This masterpiece is designed by Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava, whose works is mostly in modern and futuristic designs. The design conveys a bird spreading its wings to take flight.
Ok, this is somehow unusual for my type of photography: A piece of abstract architecture. Shows a piece of the outer structure of New York's new Transportation Hub at Ground Zero, opened in March 2016: The Oculus. Some say the most expensive train station in the world.

Train transit Hub at the World Trade Centre. Designed by Santiago Calatrava at a cost of around $3.9bn. Next to Ground Zero.
Had 5 middle of the day (10am-3pm busiest time of the day) hours to get round NY before moving on, so it was a rush to get round and the image quality suffered accordingly. Meaning I sadly ended up with a few ubiquitous Lammy stock type tourist
images.
