Black and white photo looking upward at the Chase Tower in Rochester, NY at night.
The Chase Tower, also known as Lincoln First Bank (before 1996), is a skyscraper located in Rochester, New York, United States. It is the third tallest skyscraper in Rochester, standing at 392 feet (119 m). It has 27 floors and was constructed in 1973. The architect responsible for designing the building was John Graham & Company. It serves as the upstate New York headquarters of JPMorgan Chase. The building is unique for its outstanding white vertical fins and the fact that it curves outward on the bottom.
Houston’s tallest skyscraper—the 1,002-foot-tall JPMorgan Chase Tower—rises into the overcast sky in the city’s downtown.

It's back next weekend (come around again very quickly!) and i might be swimming when i should be shooting, so here's a dip back in the archives to the Round the Island Race 2012 and another of the Telephoto Panoramas that I captured from Yarmouth Pier.
Taken not long after the race started, looking east back towards the start at Cowes.
Just seen it on my 'home' page and this is the sort of shot that the new flickr is made for :)

Almost two years ago I witnessed fog like this from the 30th floor of my building within Canary Wharf. However on that day I was totally unprepared and most importantly I'd left my camera at home. I've been waiting roughly two years for some fog like this to come along and when it finally did I had to make the most of it!

I got a lot of comments about my recent '2012 round the island race' sailing photos saying that they looked very painterly, so of course it was only a matter of time before i actually had a go at really making one painterly by working with some flypaper textures.
You can see one of the original shots in the comments below, to see how they compare, be interested to hear what you think?

Two of the Canary Wharf Estate's buildings poking up through the fog with the Cheesegrater, Gherkin and Heron Tower just visible in the background and if like me you are able to zoom in then you can also see the faint edges of Tower 42 behind the Gherkin.

John Pierpont Morgan or J.P. Morgan was born in Hartford Connecticut in 1837 to a very distinguished and well off New England family which already contributed greatly to the fledgling United States. Morgan’s mother Juliet Pierpont was related to James Pierpont who founded Yale University down in New Haven Connecticut. J.P.’s paternal grandfather founded Aetna Insurance right in Hartford where he was born. His father Junius Spencer Morgan operated a successful Hartford dry-goods company before becoming a partner in a London-based merchant banking firm. J.P. Morgan after finishing high school in Boston was off to Germany to the University of Göttingen in Germany. He returned to the states and trained as an accountant for New York banking firm of Duncan, Sherman and Company. J.P. then went to work with his dad and form an alliance with Philadelphia banker Drexel to form Drexel, Morgan and Company which would eventually be reorganized in 1895 as J.P. Morgan and Company one of the most powerful and important banking houses in the world that today still exists as J.P. Morgan Chase.
J.P. Morgan always had an eye on the big picture financially, after the Civil War he eyes the limping railroad industry. Morgan purchased many of the small railroad companies that were on the verge of collapse, restructured most of them imposing his own standards to the railroad industry. Among his railroad holdings were New York Central, the New Haven and Hartford, Pennsylvania, Southern and North Pacific Railroads. J.P. Morgan fostered the merger of the Edison General Electric Company with the Thompson-Houson Electric Company to form General Electric the new company would go on to become the primary electrical-equipment company of the United States. Morgan financed the creation of the Federal Steel Company which he would eventually merge with Carnegie Steel Company to form the power United States Steel Company (US Steel) which was the big gun in steel until foreign steel started entering this country.
Morgan though was also an ardent art collector and a collector of fine literature and books and particularly in the last two decades of his life it took a life of its own. J.P. would spend over $60 million dollars on art (~$900 million today). What was his taste so to speak? Well he put together a collection of Western civilization that spanned the full range of artistic and human achievement. The thousands of pieces he acquired ranged from bronzes, porcelains, watches, ivories, and paintings to furniture, tapestries, armor, and ancient Egyptian artifacts as well as the rare books, manuscripts, drawings, prints, and ancient artifacts. As his collection that were both in London and New York grew, in New York in particular it outgrew the treasure room of his basement at 219 Madison Avenue. J.P. Morgan commissioned the McKim, Mead and White Firm in 1902 to build the proper edifice for the collection. The design was undertaken by Charles McKim himself, who was instructed to build a separate magnificent building adjacent to his New York home to house the collections with the instructions from J.P. himself “I want a gem.”
When J.P. Morgan passed away in 1913, and estimated two thirds to three quarters of his $60 million dollar fortune was his collections of arts and books. His son J.P. Morgan Junior or Jack Morgan as he was know was left the ultimate disposition of his late father’s collections. The instructions in J.P. Morgan’s will? To make said objects “permanently available for the instruction and pleasure of the American people” So Jack did have to liquidate some of the art to pay taxes and maintain the liquidity of the estate, he donated large portions to the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Wadsworth Atheneum in Hartford Connecticut, but the books, manuscripts and drawings remained intact and became the core of the Morgan’s collection. In 1924 Jack Morgan transferred the ownership to a board of trustees and established the Morgan as a public institution the Morgan Library & Museum . This image I have taken here is of the library, H. Siddons Mowbray's decorative scheme on the ceilings, the beautiful stacks, just a gem as J.P. had requested. The Morgan holds musical performances, and readings, there are ample activities throughout the year. A beautiful often overlooked museum just a few blocks east of the Empire State Building.

Manage to get some fog shots the other day, not as good as the very first big fog that covered London as that sat around half the hight as the fog in this photo, which meant you could see allot further into the distance than in this photo. When I arrived to the 30th floor of my building I couldn't see a dam thing through any of the windows the fog was that high and thick, however after waiting a few minutes as the sun started to rise the fog began to clear and theses two building became visible as the light started to hit them.

With recent postings including lots of weddings, babies, flowers and iphone shots, a landscape and some clouds was long overdue.
So todays not so random dip into the archive was selected to redress the balance. Shot during the '2013 Round the Island Race' on the Isle of Wight, this vertical panorama was captured on my early morning trek around the West Wight viewpoints (This is from up on Headon Warren) and you'll need a microscope to actually see any boats :)
