I love how the solid, clear center stripe offsets the pair of curved reflections on either side. I might try (even though I am not very skilled in this) to eliminate the light fixture that is seen through (or reflected off) the right side window.

It's like one of those picture challenge things were the viewer is to find the differences in two nearly identical images. I found a few and it kept me looking for a while so well done to you Penny. -Doug

Almost Symmetrical was almost my topic.
thanks tv and YB. Penny Street

With your new camera and lens, I am looking forward to seeing some gems.

Nice capture of the new reflecting the old.

Good study in color contrasts with warm colors in the central strip contrasted against the cool colors in the twin reflections. Excellent asymmetrical symmetry. -tv

thanks for the nice comments.
Brent, I watched the whole first season of Damages just recently and I understand William Hurt shows up for the second!! Great show. I love the opening credits with all the scenes around Grand Central Station, in particular.

This is signature "Penny" style and content - well done - You are the queen of city reflection shots! :-D I like the almost identical image in each side of the image. Great color and composition too. CJ

Fabulous image, Penny! You've certainly picked the perfect topic for you to excell in!

I didn't know that, Rod. ~Lydia

Super! Well done, Penny.

Nicely done Penny. Do you ever watch that TV series "Damages"? The opening credits always show the same NYC scenes and every time I see them I think of you and Tommy as they happen by some of the same places.

Excellent looking picy Penny, you seemed to have framed it just right. The light on the stonework is a really nice touch. Are you using auto Iso? I've read that for best low noise picys only use the native Iso like 100,200,400,800,1600,& 3200. All the in between & above Iso are software generated & produce too much noise, even at low Iso.
