I like this impression of a corridor, with no end. The night seems already there, which add a little surrealist side :)
Great stuff.

The sky is so light and the city caverns dark; this is a remarkable capture of 42nd Street.
The 'crown' of the Chrysler building is BEAUTIFUL up there where it's light!

Great perspective on the 42nd street ! A mythic street ! I love all the lights coming out of the windows...

Beautiful photo JJ - perfect, in fact. Question for me, though, is where did you take this from? The angle makes it look like it was taken from a hotel room, or bridge, or top of a bus...

Is that a copyright written on the road or the shot? :-) Clever.

Great atmospheric image. I really like the mixed lighting and the perspective, it almost drags you into the picture. And when you got the Chrysler building in the image it´s surely a winner.
I love this one.

Craig from United Kingdom
Impressive cityscape with great colours/lights again with good clarity throught the frame. What most impresses me when you take these shots is your steady hand, even with IS I'd have fluffed this up!

That's like something out of a travel mag, absolutely stunning work.

Heck of a daily view ... guess it gets less impressive as familiarity takes over.

Stephen Phillips from San Francisco, United States
Bravo, JJ- an exceptional capture. The light on that foreground tree adds so much. Inviting the eye to return again and again.

Benoit Darrieux from Clermont Ferrand, France
I like the shots you do inside the city, this perspective give a spectacular impression of gigantism. It reminds me a picture you did few weeks ago, which was also brillant. There is a white line on the left side of the pic, what is it ?? I regret to have this line on this so nice pic.

I agree...this is beautiful. It somehow makes NYC seem a little less frenetic.
