Kessia, I'm pleased my comment has been so well received. Here's my version using PS (Edit, Transformation, Skew -- sliding the top 'handles' towards the outside along a guide line that runs across the top of the image) ... as you've notice: the cropping necessary to make it rectangular loses part of the image... therefore a wide angle 'PC' lens is better. ..Gab

i think a found the PS option you were talking about... this is my quick edit...i think the left is still a little skewed...but its an impressive tool to use! Kessia

wow! thank you for your comment! honestly i wasn't really even aware of ways to fix that (besides actually going far enough back...but in Bryant Park, I think i was already as far back as possible!) that was a very useful comment though, thank you for the tips! Kessia

There's a lot I like here: the detail on the buildings, the character of the space, and the wonderful range of sepia tonality. Capturing this much and make it hold together is very difficult, but you've pulled it through. On a personal level, I would have used a PC (perspective control) lens or adjusted the building's verticals with PS "Skew." Normally when photographing a building, the camera has to be tilted upward to include the upper part of the structure. This results in vertical lines that converge toward the top, making the buildings appear they are leaning backward. a 'PC' lens, the Adobe PS "Skew" or the best: go far enough back to keep the camera level ... which in a crowded city is usually not possible. Regardless, I love this image .. great photographic work.. Gab

I Love the way the Empire State building is peeking out so majestically from behind the park. The sepia tones give it a wonderful old fashioned look. Mom

I love the sepia tones you chose, Kessia - together with the old buildings, it gives this a real 'period piece' feeling! You're just so *cosmopolitan*! :)!
