I like the way the dark & light bricks both complement and disturb each-other presence at the same time. This is great stuff, like a scene from a gothic graphic novel.

All you need now is some banter between Ronnie and Lilly! Wonderfully seen DJ - lovely contrasts.

What a unique picture. It is amazing what we can see when we take the time to look "up" at things. Love it.

I've always found those fire escapes very intriguing and you've made a great capture of it ... love the zig zag lines in combination with the beautiful B&W colors of these buildings!

fantastic. You have an eye, a gift, and a great city to use it in - I look forward to your photos everyday. Great job here - the texture and geometry is top notch for a subject, and your photo is superb.

This could very well be the actual color- blue sky over a concrete jungle! Nice pair of zigzag shapes.

I love this style of building with the zig-zagging fire escapes and brick. The blue sky is such a surprise...really working well with the shades of grey!

Could be a 50's shot if it wasn't for the window units.
