ah. this is totally my favortie building ing new york. the hotel I stayed in was just down from it (the helmsey on 42nd). couldn't help but fall in love with it. a lovely shot of it, thanks.
IMHO it would have an in your face quality if the composition and position of the taking point coild have removed the other buildings - as it can not be cropped to get that.
I love this shot except for the buildings on the side, I know it must be next to impossible to get a clean, clear shot of this building considering it's location, maybe if you had gotten closer to the base and shot even further up?
I think I also saw this building in another photo. It sure is a very photogenic building that's for sure. The way you've framed it using the other buildings on the sides is very effective.
