Hi Carolyn, I didn't do much to this shot. The distorted skyline is the effect of the super wide angle 10.5 mm lens, straight out of the camera. All I did was crop it square, desaturate and work on the levels a bit.
Cheers,
Hugo

Hi Manu, Thanks, my friend! Cropping the sky? hmmm. Interesting thought. I'd need to try that... Per attached, the original shot, straight out the camera, with a cropped sky. I maintained the full width of the shot, primarily because I think with a cropped sky, the width emphasises the vastness of Manhattan even more. Is this what you had in mind?
Cheers,
Hugo

I like the full sky view best. This is one amazing shot, and the full sky version supports the vastness of the New York cityscape.
Hugo, this shot, along with all your other recent city shots, is sure to sell a few fisheye lenses!
A real treat!

Hi Hugo,
Long time 'no see'!
And I see you are really 'flying high' with the awards, literally also....
You are really having a great time with your fisheye lense. (I'm so jealous!) LOL
REally a spectacular view, I prefer the black and white over the color, and I also prefer the view as you have it here.
Very nice image, Hugo
Have a GR8 day and evening!

That's exactly what I was thinking, Hugo. But I think both versions carry their own merits. The original has an eliptical appearance whilst the BW version has more depth and feeling of claustraphobia....once again photography like most art forms can be interpreted in so many ways.
Cheers for now

wow...
It takes large vision to capure the expanse of NYC in such an encompassing way! When I sit back, admiring the way you see the city, I cannot help but feel like I have a better understanding of what this medium is all about. Your presentation is as comfortable as popcorn in a big bowl. It's all there, it's wonderful to look at, and there is an overwhelming sense that NOTHING is being missed. That's huge.
This shot spectacular, and is so deserving of the awards. Congrats, Hugo! ...Brad

Hi Bradley, I shot this through the eyes of a foreigner, like the rest of the NYC series. Really loved being there.... Somehow, the B&W fitted / fits with the way I experienced my time in New York.
I enjoyed reading your description a lot. In respect to this shot, I never looked at it that way, as I got rather frustrated with my fellow tourists pointing their nifty little cameras through the grating flashing happily at the city (to no avail) at the exact same point where I had planned to take a shot. So when the spot was vacant, I took my shot, and rushed down.... Don't think I'll ever get up there again, but I'll surely return to NYC.
Cheers,
Hugo

Hey, Hugo . . . You got WAY up there! Consider the vertigo as being induced in many of us. You chose a pretty good time of day so that the suns angle made the buildings stand out in relief. The shadow of the building (the one you occupied?) in the foreground is especially interesting. I will put this lens on my "wish list" (it's a long list).

Hi Pat, that Hattrick was quite a surprise....:) I do agree, the title is rather off, three corners seems a bit far fetched with this shot. Then again, the selection of images swiched in due course. Thought of renaming this one to "pin cushion", but Vertigo would also be appropriate. Need to think of an appropriate name for the entire series, though. I'm working on it...:(

Superb Hugo! That fisheye really has come into its own in this shot... There is such a feeling of being on top of the world. Or perhaps this is a manmade porcupine with quills poking out in all directions? Currently in defensive more following 9/11?
Its a wonderful image and easy to see why it has attracted all the awards it so richly deserves.

This shot as of a ceremonial dance, where the pattern created by the tall buildings draw you into the picture and sweeps you around the frame. I think you did very well and obviously spotted the potential for creating a striking with the group of skyscrapers, then capturing the proceeding from the perfect angle view not too low so that you can?t see the circular shape, but IMO a bit high that you begin to loose the energy of the real altitude feelings of the buildings. Saying that the way shot fills the frame and how low building patch of earth is slightly off-center, approcited method and superbly executed.
You have 3 titles here, its time to hire one of them at least: )

Hi Hugo, yes, I?m a bit quiet lately, too many things to do in my family and the rest of the time spent taking shots ;) This photo gives me the sensation to be an eagle flying over the city, not only for the height, but also for the great angle of your lens, it would not have been the same with a 50 mm ;) I like the richness of details that make me think to the many people working, talking, walking, laughing and crying down there? Bye, Max

Didn't comment when I looked the first time as I was just over-awed. Now look: EC, SC AND BIP!!! This reminds me of the sort of posters we used to put up when we were students. Time to do the decent thing and add you to my Friends - I appreciate very much the honesty and integrity of your comments (and your photos of course!)

Hi Todd, thanks for your comment, and I appreciate your suggestion. I've posted the original shot, with the cropped sky in my reply to Manu. Interesting suggestion, which I guess would also work well. I chose to post process it as is mainly because of the square format. It's one out of a series of 45 square B&W shots, mostly shot with a 6x6 medium format camera. The consistency throughout the series made me square this one too.
What I like most about the suggestion is that (once again) I realise how subjective composition is, within the series, I don't think there's an alternative but to crop it square, but as a stand alone, I think you have a very good point.
Thanks again,
Cheers,
Hugo

Great tonality in the B&W & the distinctive shadow of the Empire State building shows exactly where you were when taking the photo. Congrats on the awards - perhaps you could put it in the 'Best picture of 2005' if UF create one & pick up another award!

There was an album with a similar graphic vibe but memory fades here as well?
But this definitely belongs in an album cover ? not the puny space accorded to cd?s? but the great canvases of the old vinyl albums. A smart artistic director would use it as the cover choice for a re-issue of a grand classic tune? Mozart?s Requiem?
This is a big, impressive picture Hugo, well worthy of all accolades.

Hi Carlos, Thanks for your comment.... I still haven't figured out which album cover either. It's beginning to nag me, so if the album title comes to mind, please let me know...:)
Cheers,

This fish-eye view bowls me over and as judged by the comments, everyone else is quite amazed as well. The choice of B/W was great, as colour would have been busy and distracting. I am impressed by the detail and clarity of the highrises.
