MANHATTAN – I met a friend for lunch at the Century Association on 43rd Street. Afterwards I lurked around Midtown with a camera, looking up. I ended up with a number of technically ok images. I asked for advice from Claude, the AI service, in choosing among them. Here’s what Claude said:

The sunlit glass tower rising behind the dark diagonal foreground building is the most resolved composition of the group. The wedge of light against shadow gives it real graphic force, and the street lamp creates an unexpected diagonal that keeps the eye moving. It reads immediately as New York without being a postcard. The Leica handles the tonal extremes well.

Claude doesn’t say that the image is a bit boring, which is the case.
