I like the 2nd one in the parking garage. I love the way you got the picture as the ramp goes down. That same company has so many parking garages around here.

I like them all :D

Too bad Im not a big fan of cities, they seem to be a mecca for photographic opportunity (and being 3.5 hours from NYC, you'd think I'd go there often)

Thanks, Skyphix. I am just the opposite. I love big cities, but from time to time I do enjoy some quiet nights in the countryside. Thanks again!

Well Leo I come from a small town in Wales and I live right out in the countryside on top of a small mountain. I can see for miles and all I can hear are birds and horses hooves plodding along the nearby cinder paths.I'd swap it all for some more time in NYC! The car horns, the pretzels, the hussle and bussle and the lost souls! Your photographs, especially the parking lot one, really capture the different angles, colour and movement of the friendliest city I've ever had the pleasure of! Keep em coming!

I love the parking garage one too. I think if the car was some brighter color the picture would've looked a bit more lively (but that's just my 2 cents. I'm no pro )

Absolutely, I enjoy my photographic experience in both the city and the country.

Chell, thanks for your kind words.

What you just portrayed is exactly the environment that I want to stay for a few weeks. From time to time, I just want to get away from everything, work, school, faimily, friends......., to enjoy the nature.

Well, sounds like we should swap for a month....;) ;) ;)

Chudilo, thanks for your comments and it's well taken. I think I like the way it is now because the main subjects that I want to emphasize are the many signs and arrows on the top (in orange). If the car was in some brighter color, much attention would be drawn from the signs.

Thanks for viewing.:)

Excellent shots Leo! You have a good eye. Was that parking garage near Lex and 86th? I saw one just like it there.

Thanks for your kind words, BottomBracket. The parking garage is actually in midtown, but this company has quite a few parking garages operated in Manhattan and they look about the same. Thanks again.
