Your second photo, with the cluster of those grand old buildings amidst the new is a great tribute to their beauty. I sometimes wonder if modern builders could even build something like them and stay in budget. They have wonder details, don't they?

Hi Lindy - I am amazed at how well they stand up against these new buildings .. and I doubt they can build them today and stay within the budget .. thank you so much

You wouldn't get me up there, but just imagine the awesomes photos you could get from a view at that height. Tempting but not tempting enough. These are really great photos (from a safe ground level, lol) I like the mix of old and new in the second one.

great shot of the windowwashers haywood ..adds a few elements you don;t see often ... the scale of a person alongside a skyscaper .. the red and yellow reflections in the glass, and the danger of height .. a really interesting composition !! I really like it !

and I also like the old with the new in the second.. love the crisp blue sky and the different textures of the buildings.. another great shot .. thanks for sharing them !!

Hi Vin - these guys "hangs" out in the hot weather everyday until the job is done .. I have a great deal of respect for them .. and I agree with you about the old structures holding their own against the big boys .. thank you so much for the kind words .. I appreciate it
