Stuart,

Very nice pictures. The Chrysler building seems to me to say New York more than any other structure I can think of. More so than the Empire State or the lost World Trade Centre. This is true of a very few other buildings - St.Paul's (London), Eiffel Tower (Paris). They are often not the "best" structures, but they sure do say NYC/London/Paris.

Jon & Ivan -

Thank you. I prefer that one, too, but strangely Barbara did not.

Stuart- Excellent! I've said this before about another of your Chrysler building pics, #1 is very" Gotham City-like". I really like #2, for its perspective colours and the way the building stands out in the background.

Like 'em both Stuart, but #1 especially. Might it be improved a little if you cropped a bit off the bottom the remove some of the flare?
