Thank you very much, everyone, most importantly to Joe Farace for selecting my photograph as the winner. Glad y'all like the image. It's also one of my favorite photos from my trip to the city, and so I have a big framed print on the wall. This photo was shot from the "Top of the Rock" at Rockefeller Center, actually on my 50th birthday that I celebrated in New York. In case anyone is interested in the tech specs of the image, here it goes:
Canon EOS 5D Mark II, Canon EF 16-35mm f/2.8L II,
3-shot bracket raw HDR, 1/25 + 1/6 + 0.6 sec exposures,
f/7.1, ISO 250, 19mm, post-processing in Photomatix and LR4.
