Evening light
Posted by JJ (Jersey City, United States) on 2 January 2009 in Cityscape & Urban.
I have said before that the Chrysler building is perhaps my favorite building in NYC but growing a fondness for this building when I walk past it at night and see it with this lighting and colors
Thank you for taking the time to visit. I really appreciate all your comments, and welcome any critique as I am learning the art of photography, and having a blast with it
Getting ready for a work trip from the 29th so may not be able to check all your posts but will do as and when I can

Beautiful colors and cool architecture. The use of reflected light and shadow is really effective here. Well done JJ!

That's my first impression, massive, strong and with power, yet soften with the glowing warm lights and blue reflected sky. Must be a sight to behold.

I can see why, it's very intriguing, almost Matrix-like, or you know, the cube thingy, that you can never seem to get right...lol

yes, I can see why, JJ. There is a certain something, a charm and character in the angular cubism of the architecture. The lighting works rather wonderfully also.

Splendid soft and hot colors. A tight framing which enables us to be impressed by this imposing and structured architecture Bravo ;)
