NYC by light

Check out these enhanced photos on Flickr by Arnold Pouteu of New York City by night; I recommend the slideshow, at 2.1 seconds each.

They're quite good; as someone who's regularly exposed to the works of a great photographer, I'd say his balance is a little off, too much sky/water to city ratio sometimes for my taste. But that may be deliberate.

Like other HDR photos, the luminescence of the scene grabs you... what a beautiful city, how great is it that so many wonderful photographers live here....

Ironically, NYC's interesting contrast of dark and light is being literally washed out--the Times had an interesting article, Tilting at Lampposts, about one woman's fight against light pollution.
