I love pictures of NY like this; there is no place quite like it (isn't there a song that says that?!). This is a great street scene shot.

Monica saw two arches, but I see three. Well-done, my friend. Isn't NYC a photographer's dream!!
Am I the only one having trouble seeing these darn verification words??

A great find with a detailed capture of the architectural components of the trestle arch. Good choice on the B & W treatment as I bet those "golden arches" of McDonald's stuck out like a sore thumb. ;-)

Guys..it's more of a coincidental i suppose,..an arch is a universal shape that appears naturally or otherwise..Cool shot! by the way.
