    Fantastic light and composition. I bet this would look great in b&w also. thumb.gif
    Shoot in RAW because memory is cheap but memories are priceless.

    Nice. Did you shoot this through a window? I was up in the Rockefeller Center a few weeks ago with an open air observation deck. It was pretty cool.

    Thanks for both nice replies. As to exact place: Can't remember whether this was from main observatory (open air) at Empire State Bldg (It has a mesh barrier of course but you can stick a camera in one of the open spaces in the barrier), or if it was taken from a higher interior hexagonal room with open windows. Definitely Empire State Bldg. though

    Whatever, the time to be up there is dusk for the shadows and a little while later when the lights of the city all come on within 30 sec to a minute: breathtaking either one.

    Very nice. I love the contrast in this one. How did you get the film developed?

    Thanks for the nice comment.

    I have my film developed at a Color-Tech Lab in my hometown (Buffalo, NY). It has some sort of relationship with Kodak I think. They do very nice negative scans as well. Far as I know they're regional, not national.
