Hi,
What do you think of this shot ? I took it while in NYC during June.

Nice! I must say that's a fascinating cloud above the bridge. Vaguely reminds me of an MRI of the brain.

If I may suggest: crop a bit off the top, to just above the cloud. And process the cloud at lower left so there is not so much pure white.

Stem, pons, medulla.  ::)

The highlights on the bridge are perfectly done.

Stunning. I can almost hear Sonny Rollins playing a bebop riff. And, yes, to that wild cloud.

Thanks for the reviews !

I'll darken the cloud at lower left ! For cropping just above the cloud, maybe crop it to 3/2 format ?

Nice one. I don't think a crop is necessary, but darkening the clouds at the left would stop them drawing the eye quite as much as they do.

Welcome to LuLa, Forge. I agree with Jeremy. You've got to watch out for the croppers on here. Don't believe a word they say. Rely on your own judgment. Those who don't come a cropper.

Get a grip on yourself George and maybe you can become a recovering cropper.
