NEW YORK NEW YORK – Sometimes shooting through the window of a glass curtain wall building works. It takes a little bit of technique to avoid reflections and dirty spots on the glass but sometimes it can be done. Here’s a twofer: the Lipstick Building and the Chrysler Building. This is out the window of my office. Three frames stitched with my Leica Monchrom and 75mm Summicron lens. It’s an accident that I’ve posted two tall skinny pictures within a week of each other.
Day 1,545 of one photograph a day for the rest of my life.
On this day last year: Sunset in Santa Monica.

Beautiful photograph. Is this taken from 909 Third Ave — the building above the FDR post office?
Yes – it’s actually 919 Third Avenue.
thanks.
