Comment by Paige:
nice.
IMO a crop of about an inch off the bottom would get rid of needless space and distracting yellow windows.

Beautiful skyline photo. The blues stand out perfectly against the dark sky.

Comment by tomzinho:
for all your votes - thanks! i took this photo when i was showing my cousin around NYC, it was night time, and i intended to return w/my tripod but time and weather didn't permit me to. i really thought this was my weakest photo that i had submitted here but i did better than all the others. . .

i really appreciate all of the comments (except the idiot who said 'patriotic crap' because 1) olympics are very international 2) you don't know that the flags are the US state flags, it could have been flags from around the world and 3) patriotic crap makes front covers of newspapers and magazines). i recognized the shortcoming of the photo before submission but unfortunately the system doesn't allow us to tell something about taking the shot.

i really felt that even with its imperfections (the blur), this photo could have been a small photo accompanying a newspaper article on NYC's efforts to win the olympics in almost any paper (assuming they also didn't have time to return with a tripod), and given its obvious weaknesses I'm happy that most of you liked it.

Like blur in flags but would like more crisp focus in building itself.

Too much blur on the flags for me, and I think the whole of the NYC 2012 banner should have been in shot as that would appear to be the point of the photo.
Otherwise a good shot, the lines of the building and flagpoles are very strong.
