This week’s Photo Challenge is Contrast.
And New York City is a city of contrasts, photographically and otherwise:
A couple of these photos are already elsewhere on this blog, but I do like them and they seem to fit well this week’s theme…
More New York Cityscapes are here.
Some other nice interpretations I’ve seen:
- Cheryl Andrews
- Britten
- 50 Year Project
- Lucid Gypsy
- —A year in the Life
- Broken Light
- Belajar Yuks
- Living Life in Glorious Colour
- Mike Hardisty Photography
- MJ Springett
- Lonelytravelog
- FrizzText
- Where’s my backpack?
- The Eco and the Id
- David R Wetzel Photography

Oh! I really like the second one. The blue “eyes” are wonderfully deceptive.

:-) I guessed wrong, Vlad–thought you’d post the blue buildings you took from midtown in December….

There were many candidates, but those didn’t seem quite ‘contrasty’ enough…

Wow! Stunning photos. I love how you capture so much beauty in New York. It is showing this Aussie a whole other side to your city. All I’ve really seen of it is the Friends, and the Sex and the City TV shows and I’m sure they are not really all that New York City is.

great fotos and great comments, discussion. for me too, the second one . . . blue emerging from gray and black . . . is stunning, riveting!

It would be an even better photo if it hadn’t been cropped so close to the window on the right… but as I recall, there was something distracting in the way there.

“Contrast” is relatively easy—wait till they come up with something like “Advantage” or “Misanthropic” ;-)
