Beautiful shot!
ReplyDeleteMy son and daughter-in-law were in NYC last weekend and were impressed by the peacefulness of the protest but found it difficult to differentiate between the various groups. They did note the sharpened contrast between the haves and the have-nots.

Don't just blame the bankers - look at big business throughout the world.
I think this is one of your best-ever shots. I love the gradation of colour from light to dark, combined with the reflection and the positioning against the sky. All very pleasing.
ReplyDeleteWhat a reflection, nice one :0)
