The Proposition

This is another "Norman Rockwell"-esque photograph with body language telling a story to add to my collection of similar shots.

Crossed Observer

There are many scaffolds around the city, and I find they create an interesting structural element to street photography.

Cloud Ceiling

As I have mentioned before, my office view directly overlooks the developing World Trade Center site.  Here are some prior posts with views.  

Now that One World Trade Center has reached it's full height of 1776 feet, it is truly in the clouds.  This view from my office window was pointed out to me by a co-worker (lucky me having a camera nearby).  It's interesting to me that the lower buildings are both slanted inwardly as I did not expect that kind of bending with my wide angle lense, but I like the perspective.

Left Brain, Right Brain

This picture is more of a concept than a realistic depiction.  As I was working on a title, it seemed to me that the two sides of the photograph were so different, that they could represent the workings of the brain.  The creative side versus the analytical side.  I thought I had the title, "Left Brain, Right Brain" but then I needed to confirm which side was which.  

Unfortunately, I learned the left side was the technical side, and the right was conceptual side.  My picture was the opposite.  I could have left it at that and came up with another title.  But, I decided to flip the picture to match the brain sides.  So, in the real world, the clouds were actually on the left, but in this representation, we can match the image with the proper brain layout so the title works.
