I really like the shape of the El line at the bottom of the shot. My eyes were drawn right to it and then naturally followed it right to the center of the picture where the rest of it just opened up.

Well done.

Thanks all -

Skorn86 - It was taken from 41 E. 8th. 31st floor balcony. Spent much of my time trying to keep 2 E. 8th out of the frame. :)

K. Shreesh - thanks - done.

Ophidite - I don't upload my crops to flickr (it's linked from other hosting space), otherwise, I'd submit it to your group. Thanks for the invite.

Jot.de - Dude, you're the dude. Thanks.

Great job! It isn't easy to do multi exposure on the 503cw. I suppose you used a winder to avoid cloud movement and mis-alignment?

planckstudios  Pro User  says:

:) thanks everyone. I wish you could see it printed big.

'eliat - yes, the remote for the winder and the winder itself come in quite handy for that. :)
