NYC Series - Day Six

Leica M9

The buildings in NYC are an architectural shooters dream. Every block there is something interesting. I like how these buildings and the sky play together. Wish I could get up into one of them!

Architecture Week - Day Seven

Leica M9

Back to New York. I loved the colors reflected in the windows as I walked this street. This was across the street from the Central Library if I recall correctly.

Back to Seattle, and our wonderful library building. Creates some interesting POV's, doesn't it?

The outstanding Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles. Frank Gehry is a true genius. BTW, this is not a B&W, these are the actual colors as shot. Look at those lines, reflections, textures. Love this.

Architecture Week - Topaz Tuesday

Leica M9

New York City - architectural shooters paradise! Everywhere you go there are cool buildings and angles. With the lighting present when I was on scene, I feel this one works better in B&W. I used Topaz Black and White Effects, specifically the High Contrast II preset, the a bit of Protect adjustments. This treatment does give me the feel of a cold Winter day, which it was!

We visit Seattle today. Another lovely afternoon.

Architecture Week - Day One

Leica M9

I'm going to do a weeklong series of architecture images, beginning with this one of a very famous building. The Empire State building. As I was standing in front of it and composing my shot, this bird just flew right into frame.

One of the interesting things about Empire State is that it looks so different from various points of view. Another interesting thing is that the uncle of one of my best friends owned this building. Twice!
