Times Square

Our photography class took a second trip to New York City, but this time we traveled through the midtown area. Our journey through the city began when we walked under the Empire State Building. I made several attempts to take an artistic photo of the building, but I was unable to successfully take one. After taking pictures of the Empire State Building, we walked through fifth avenue from 34th street to 53rd street. As we walked through fifth avenue, I was observing the environment around me for a potential masterpiece. Along the way I spotted a few opportunities, but I reacted too slow and missed the opportunities. When we reached 53rd street, we walked back to Times Square and sat on the red stairs. While sitting on the top of the red stairs, I took this picture of Times Square. In the picture, I managed to create leading lines which will attract the viewers' eyes to the center of Times Square. The screens on the sides also give balance and symmetry to the photograph.
