This is a very famous view, shot many times. But your version is the first one I see with the world financial center building ... and the bird is perfect in the composition. Well done

@matteroffact: at 6:15 pm
@ban-den: it's not a bird but a kite

@everybody: thanks for your comments. This moment was really peaceful with a big sun, a blue sky, this people making tai-chi and no cars in the streets.
