I had to trek up to New York for work, so I thought I'd take some shots around the city the day before. Normally, I don't venture into the tourist spots to avoid crowds. I made an exception this time. I only used my Canon 10-22 wide angle lens.

Manhattan skyline at sunset from the Top of the Rock. I was asked to leave after a few shots with my tripod fully extended. I still managed to get all of my shots that I wanted:

Christmas at the Chase Building. Did they use bailout money for this?

I was so annoyed with stupid holiday shoppers to get this shot because they kept bumping into me as I was steadying for the shot. This is attempt #5:

My favorite shot of the set! I almost deleted it originally because of the water spots that were on my lens. But, I think it adds a bit more misery to the mood.
