A very interesting series.
Wonderful sights from a city I only know from film, tv and pictures.
I really enjoyed these.
The second one is my favourite.

Wonderful pictures! They are so special in BW.
I was there back in 1970.
Thanks for the souvenirs.
New York is an authentic beauty.:Love:

Oh yesss, Dez. These are wonderful, especially the first one. Just the right amount of haze for the backgrounds of these. What did you use for your B+W conversion? Well done.

The only thing I'd change is I would clone out the screen clips in the second image, make it a bit cleaner for the eyes. I can see the first one printed up large and framed.

Excellent series. Very nice incorporation of water and fading horizon. They make me want to visit NY soon.

Nice work! I really like the cloudy look particularly in the third image with the background.

You've got this concept down to a Poetic Science Dez! Excellent Job!

Awesome series! The second is my favorite, with the first one a very close runner up.

These are all amazing! Those straight lines are impressive to me. They are perfect.

Thanks everyone! :biggrin:

Always enjoy your shots of NYC Dez, makes me what to make that trip back there..!!!.

I know that they are needed, but the new batch of aerial towers popping up on top of all these buildings (last 2 shots) don't look right unlike the Empire State building that was design to have it on top and looks great...
Plus they really spoil the out look of NYC... JMO...

I agree but unfortunately, the Manhattan skyline is changing and we will see more of the new modern structures popping up.

Thanks :smile:

Love #1, Dez. It's a smasher. But this is just a great series of images. Every one is a keeper. Beautiful!
