Now that winter seems to be over in NY, and the trees almost start blooming, I went back into the park. The Pond surrounds a small animal sanctuary, and without leaves on the trees, the reflections on the water are pretty calm.

Staten Island Ferry Terminal

The construction around the renovated Staten Island ferry terminal is almost finished, and it looked very intriguing for a panorama. At first I thought the south side would make a good one, but I think the north sode is actually working better. Never the less, those are just preliminary test panoramas, and not very high rez, since I just wanted to see if it’s worth the trouble and to see the composition. Let me know what you think, and if it would be worth reshooting it and ultimately getting it into my fine art portfolio.

Wall Street – New York Stock Exchange – Federal Hall

Wall Street, or better the NYSE at Broad Street isn’t easy to capture if full, since the streets aren’t very wide, and one would need a super extreme wide-angle to capture it. That makes it an ideal candidate for a panorama. The frontal view are two different renderings from the same panorama shot since I am intending to license those panoramas for stock usage. If you would like to use them, send me an email. In the same realm is the Charging Bull on Broadway, another big symbol of the financial district.
Many many megapixel.
Macy’s and Herald Square at Night (Flower Show)

It’s been more than a year that I took the Holiday panorama at Herald Square. I wasn’t very happy with it. The highlights were too blown out, too much motion blur, no good HDR, and last of all, not big enough to print in my standard panorama size of 240x75cm (96x30in). So, here is the new version, right in time for the Macy’s Flower Show. Which version do you like better?

Chinatown (Flushing)

New York has most things more than once, especially Chinatown. The chinese community in Flushing is probably greater than the one in Manhattan, and has more room to grow. Main Street especially is exciting for all it’s food, either cooked or uncooked. I have to go back and get some more panoramas, especially of some of the stores on Main Street. The minimart I photographed isn’t very asian, even if it is around in Chinatown, so I am not sure about that one yet. Let me know what you think.
