Nikkor 10-24 @ f11 - 5 exposures - HDR processed with Photomatix and CS4

Since I saw photos of this place I knew I had to get my own - so had the chance to go to NYC for business and late last night was able to visit the station and take a few brackets (5) to create this HDR.

My gorillapod came in handy this time around.

44 feet presence at Madison Square Park

I was walking around NYC, with a few more minutes before I had to head to the airport right after visiting Chase Jarvis' project Dassain at the ACE hotel ... So I took a peek at an area map my on my Windows Phone and realized there was a park (Madison Square Park) a few blocks from there ... decided to walk ... got to the park and nothing special seemed to be happening but then I noticed a huge white " thing" in the middle ... lucky me to find this huge surreal statue with all sorts of people sunbathing around ... yes, that is the empire state building behind the statue :-)

You can read more about this 44 feet tall statue here http://www.madisonsquarepark.org/things-to-do/calendar/jaume-plensa-in-madison-square-park but here's a summary: "Echo, Plensa’s commission for Madison Square Park, depicts a nine-year old girl from Plensa’s Barcelona neighborhood, lost in a state of thoughts and dreams. Standing forty-four feet tall at the center of the park’s expansive Oval Lawn, Echo’s towering stature and white marble-dusted surface harmoniously reflect the historic limestone buildings that surround the park. Both monumental in size and inviting in subject, the peaceful visage of Echo creates a tranquil and introspective atmosphere amid the cacophony of central Manhattan"

Sowmya's NYC

Traveled to NYC on business last week and (of course) didn't miss the opportunity to spend the night and next morning shooting. I was able shoot a lot and from great vantage points thanks to the good New Yorker and good friend (with lots of patience) Sowmya who I had the pleasure to follow around town.

This pano of the city at night is basically his own view of the city, from the roof of the building at 444 and 35th west. So dedicated this shot to you my friend!

6 shot panoramic. Nikkor 16-35mm @ 32mm, 4 sec & f11. Camera on tripod.
