the (Big)apple of my eye! by fmarty

An awesome pre-sunrise fisheye panoramic view of Midtown Manhattan crowned by the always glowing Chrysler Building! It is great to see buildings around Bryant Park on the left and the glow of the East River on the right, with some slender buildings around the Gantry Plaza State Park in Brooklyn posing for the shot!
To Bill Sherman and his Coolor-full views of this amazing city!
In Memory of Dr. Michael Davidson.

Mis bisontes V by ahenav

Spring morning in Granada, Spain, 2012.
