"New York, New York" New York City by bijel

Another night view of the city. I believe this was when I first fell in love with the city of lights at night. But no other city will take over what New York has come to mean for me.

This picture was sent to me by Ruxi, whom I met for a night. We met at the Central Park Hostel, where we were sharing a night, and decided to do the Empire State together. She took this picture. My camera, unfortunately, was not able to take any of the night lights.

It would be different in the day, of course.

• Pros:The diversity, the chaos, the loudness, the vastness, the vertical-ness
• Cons:The Street Scum
• In a nutshell:I love New York!
