A slightly different view to normal of One World Trade Centre in Manhattan, NYC. It's an amazing building, dominating the skyline, but my eye was drawn to the shapes and reflection in the lower part of the building, with these strange angled reflectors (part of climate control system?) and the reflection of the adjacent skyscraper.

Usual crop, levels, curves and USM in PS, but otherwise as taken.

Thanks for looking!

Steve

Quite spectacular with it disappearing out of the top corner. I like the diagonal format you have used which gives it feeling of strength and power. The black reflections look like the German Iron Cross medal?

Hi Ian,

Thanks once again for the detailed comment. Glad you liked the angle - I agree it gives it a dynamic feel Hadn't spotted the iron cross resemblance - but you're right!
