A setting sun burnishes the facades of these New York office buildings and shops, yet day's end does not slow the pace of activity here. We can see the traffic approaching us, the pedestrians crossing the street, and even two silhouetted photographers waiting in the distance -- they were (dangerously) shooting the setting sun from the middle of the street. A passenger jet is suspended in the distant sky as it descends for a landing at Newark Airport. I exposed for the golden sky, and allowed the rest of the image to recede into shadow and glittering reflections.
