Man I love your images of New York so much. I wish I lived in that city.

Thanks for looking, and for the kind comments, all. PP is a variation of what I have been doing for my urban shots lately - desat, D&B in multiple layers, and a bit of experimentation in blending modes.

The old lady looked tired that day, and was perhaps resting.

Bbracket, another beautifully crafted image from start to finish.
IMHO you post some of the most distinctive images on the forum. Thank you.

Great shot and that is the best thing about the city. There is shot on every corner.

Thank you once again, my peers, much appreciated. Yes, this was taken at the Chinatown area, at the corner of Bowery and Division. I agree that I do have a distinct advantage over most, as there are tons of photo opportunities lurking in the streets of NYC. Any of you who happens to visit, give me a holler, let's see if we can arrange a meet. Thanks again all.
