My fiancee and I spent a weekend in New Brunswick with her sister and brother-in-law, so we headed into Manhattan of course (I still can't believe I've actually been there!) We were pressed for time so I didn't get to get a lot of the shots i wanted (damn not being allowed to take tripods up to any of the observation decks!), but I did get a few good ones.

#7 I really wish i'd been able to take this from further north, opposite the landmark buildings such as empire state and chrysler, but oh well. it's an excuse to go back one day.

#8 from the same vantage point as the broadway pics. I've never seen a skyscraper made from bricks before!

I really like the color in #2 and #3
I like very much the night picture #7...
also interesting #8 with that brick wall.
Nice bw convesion there.
awesome shots!
Amazing shots, I really like the views and the night scenes.
Wasn't the Rabid Penguin complaining about not being happy with any of his shots recently?

I guess you need unfamiliar locations to inspire you, because all of your new stuff is great.
How do you get to travel so much?
I find this set of images are exremely appealing. The second and the last images in particular are my favs. The contrast, light and perspective is awesome.

My fiancee is from Seattle, and she has family in New Brunswick. Smile Otherwise i would have never had the opportunity.
The broadway shots are stunning. You have really produced some amazing work on this trip.
