The Highline, NYC
As often as I've been by the Highline, I have yet to ascend. The weekend it opened, I had thought to go. It was late, and I tried to convince my friend to go, but she wasn't sure it would be open. We ended up not going. Since then, it fades in and out of my memory. For a while, I was in Chelsea every weekend seeing one show or another, but it never coincided with the desire to walk the line.
I took this photo on my way to this year's Armory show. I had met a friend downtown and we walked through Chelsea en route to the piers. Passing the Highline, I paused to take this shot. Once on the west side highway, we hailed a cab. The show was packed. We may have had a more enjoyable afternoon outdoors. My thoughts drifted back towards Chelsea and ascended the elevated park we had passed not too long ago.

Beautiful, perfect black and white abstract.
Thanks Adrian! Looking at this again, I would what it would have looked like crop to a square. If only I had a Hasselblad. :p
This is great, I love it the way it is. There are several different zones/worlds in this photo.
Thanks Wojszyca! I really love the architecture of the building above. This past weekend I walked the highline for the first time, and got to see the building up closer. It almost looks like something you'd see Cary Grant running away from in a film. :-)
