Beautiful picture. If you like urban trees you should check out Buenos Aires. I just got back from a couple weeks there and I was struck by the beautiful streets - almost all of them lined by trees to provide shade for the sidewalks. That coupled with the street-facing balconies on almost every building made for some beautiful streetscapes.

Nice shot! I love the composition of the trees and the buildings.
I can see some Japanese words. Left side bar’s name ‘KENKA’is funny.
It means ‘quarrel’ or ‘fight’ ;)
B&W version is very atmospheric - but your color shots are so full of warmth - no other blog reaches out and drags the viewer into the screen like yours - keep bringing NYC to life for me!

Kurt ... in Austria 8/24/06I’ve been exploring your Favorites. (Was hoping to leave a comment for HomeRange, but there’s no form for that–it’s one of my favorites.)
As for this shot, it works well in color, I think. Lots going on there, and the lighting is magical.
