I love the leading lines, and the vignetting works perfectly with this shot! Well done!

This photo makes me sad because it reminds me how little of the sky is visible in much of Manhattan. But in that regard, it is a very powerful image! (And of course the symmetry and lines are stunning!)

Behind The Lens
Location
I took this photo while walking a narrow street in New York City, I litterally stood in the middle of the road and pointed my camera upwards to get this shot.Time
The photo was taken during the afternoon.Lighting
xEquipment
This was shot with a Canon 60D and a wide angle lens.Inspiration
The dynamic created by the symmetrical disposition of the towers, and all these lines and patterns converging towards the same distant direction.Editing
I enhanced the contrast and the details and reduced the saturation to give it a more dramatic feel. I added texture as well.In my camera bag
I usually have my Canon 5D Mk III along with 2 or 3 lenses and a tripod depending on the location and what kind of photo I'll be taking. I don't take everything if I know I won't be needing it, the lighter I go, the more comfortable I'll be while shooting.Feedback
Look for interesting patterns and lines, maybe repetition, which would result in unusual and dynamic perspectives.Use a wide angle lens to accentuate the effect.
