A view from the Manhattan Bridge – Sunrise.
The sunrises in NY is often something that is overshadowed by morning commutes and the anxiety of the day that awaits. I find that in the morning, as the sun strikes the buildings facing east there is a spectacular display of reflection from the different architectural choices from the buildings.
The warm glow from the sun filters through the smog giving a diffused blue glow in the background. Closely resembles robin egg blue, but paler.
The windows of the newer buildings reflect the light like a seamless mirror from a distance, adding depth between the seemingly cramped city plan.
The older buildings absorb more of the glow and offer a nice contrast to the cooler colors emitted by the reflective buildings.
In the foreground the bridge has many shadows cast by the steel support frames and even the brilliance of the traffic cone pops out from the dark asphalt it sits upon.
There are many objects in this photo, but the tones set by the sunrise brings it all together in unison.
