I went to the city today to meet some friends and to visit the BILD Expo put on by B&H Photo. It is a giant extravaganza having to do with cameras, lenses, lighting, sound, video and everything else having to do with photography and video. As I walked out of Penn Station I was stopped in my tracks by the sight of these two skyscrapers enveloped in fog! The ceiling, or cloud base, was about 500 feet. It was so cool to see this!
I always walk over to the Javits Center, just short of a mile one way, so I got a lot more views of other disappearing skyscrapers. I just love these atmospheric effects!
I particularly love this dark black building, in contrast to the lighter, glass surfaced buildings. One other thing I just realized is that these photographs look they were shot in black & white, but they were not - each of these images is in color! This was such a cool thing to see!

Cool photos. Glad you clarified that these were color photos as they certainly appear black and white on a gray and foggy day.
i would love to see the subtle differences between the color and b&w versions.
This is extraordinary because it looks like you photographed the buildings and fog in black & white. Very cool! Betsey
