I love how you've given the perspective to the street. Looks like everyone is leaving town because of too much snow.

Fabulous! Exceptional city image as night and snow have moved in. I really like the blue tones and haze between the buildings. I'm giving you 5 stars for this one.

EYES WIDE SHUT from United Kingdom
Stunning view, JJ. I almost expect Godzilla to appear at the far end, swinging his tail through the giant skyscrapers as in the blockbuster film! This is a gem

Craig from United Kingdom
Yup I concur with many others that this is a cool shot, the blue tones and misty/snowy background do give a kind of movie set look, Gotham City! Well done anyway, good stuff :o)
Oh and there a white strip down the left hand side, is it just my screen that's appearing on?
25 Jan 2009 7:40pm
@Craig: Thanks for pointing the white strip out, not sure how that got there, wasnt there last night when I posted it, re uploaded and its gone now
