First Impression

Posted by PD (Overland Park, Kansas, United States) on 15 November 2008 in Cityscape & Urban and Portfolio.

One of the first things we did after arriving at our hotel in New York was to walk down to Times Square. It was amazing... so many things to look at and people are there all the time!

2nd in the New York Series.

Thanks for stopping by. Check out my portfolio link to see my favorites.

I agree with you, PD. It's a fascinating place where Time shows its mad face :)
Good shot, I like the lighting of the image. I bet you took some hundreds of photos :))

It's an awesome perspective but it looks like you probably got run over in the process of getting this shot. The Bubba Gumpt Shrimp caught my eye.

@willow: The taxis are crazy.. so yes I had to time it just right :)

JJ from Jersey City, United States

Time square is such an amazing place indeed, even after having lived in this area for a few years I find it amazing still, beautiful capture

This is so brith and clear! I once stayed in an apartment owned by the company my father worked for and we looked down over Times Square, the lights, noise, smell, something all should have the opportunity to experience just once in their life!

I posted a photo today I took in Times square this May. My background has been as an illustrator and my photos look like illustrations. I like your photos of New York! I look forward to viewing more of your work.
