This upward view of the Chrysler Building and the adjoining former Mobil
Oil Building features distinctive New York City landmarks. However, it
is not a standard cell phone image taken by a curious passerby of
historic architecture on 42nd Street; it's a photograph concerned with
documenting landmarks but doing it with precise composition and exact
color harmony. It's punctuated with an oversized yellow moon contrasting
with the surrounding cool elements. The photograph of a New York icon
is as dramatic and visually arresting as the architecture itself.
