42nd and Fifth, in Midtown

Photo by myself, at 42nd Street and Fifth Avenue, in Midtown.

We had a perfect Fall day, Monday. The light seems much more autumnal, with more pronounced shadows and a golden-ish glow.

The above photo was taken at 42nd Street and Fifth Avenue, a very busy intersection in Midtown. Lots of people stroll down Fifth Avenue, and 42nd Street is a major commuter hub, with Grand Central Terminal on the east end and Port Authority bus terminal on the west. (Here, I am facing east).

To my right, out of frame, is the large white headquarters of the New York Public Library. Ahead, is the Chrysler Building. The windows next to the 'No Turns' sign belong to it.

The above photo was tweaked for color. I de-saturated the colors quite a bit.
