Concrete Jungle Where Dreams are Made of...

Here's the view from my office. It's a great view, Southern exposure, can see the world trade site. The new freedom tower, or World Trade 1, is just now starting to become visible. There's also a view of the Gehry Building to the left, but it didn't photograph well, I'll have to try again. Hope you like.

Ok, it's a bit kitchy, but I don't care.

Another image that I feel came out well. This way you can see the sculpture.

This is the title image as it was originally meant to be and without the letter box ratio. It is another HDR photo taken at Battery Park in New York City. I tried to get the sun to be proportional within the frame but maybe it could have stood to be a little larger. I'll open up the aperture up more next time.

Taken May 2010

This was another of the first HDR Images I produced. It is also without a tripod. Not much post production was performed on this outside of Photomatix Pro, and even in Photomatix only Tonal Compression. Photoshop there were some curves and masking of the the faces near the sun.
