Taken through the glass at the superb Seagram Building, New York City. I
liked the reflection of the tree. Mies Van der Rohe, the “less is more’

It still fascinates me how a photograph can freeze an instant in time. This
is Bryant Square, New York City at 13.06 local time on the 5th May 2007. A
beautiful space.

There is a childlike excitment to be had standing with all the other tourists on the Empire State Building’s viewing platform as night approaches. Suddenly somebody say’s, ‘Oh look, they’ve put the lights on the Chrysler Building!’ Then you see this beautiful building of fairytale elegance. How sad for the architect of this exceptional structure that old man Chrysler refused to pay his professional fees, because, he alleged, the architect had taken a back-hander from the contractor.

Look at the intense, almost angry stare of the passengers, especially the
young boy. Their apparent lack of prosperity, seems a cruel contrast to the
immense wealth of the Wall Street area.

Yip, this is absolutely my first squeeze of the shutter on my Canon 5D when
we arrived in New York. How ornate some of the buildings are. Like most
people, I suppose, I found myself for the first few hours go, ‘Wow, look at
that !’
