A dark day looms
Posted by JJ (Jersey City, United States) on 25 February 2009 in Landscape & Rural.
Another morning visit to exchange place, thought the dark clouds covering Manhattan looked very ominous
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

I agree, the end of the world. It looks like a good wave could wipe the whole place off the map. Wonderful photo, JJ.

I love the twinkles at a distance. Just a dab of light. Of course the clouds add the movement to the scene. Lovely.
