High Line Park, New York City by Don

This is an old elevated rail line that runs through lower Manhattan. It has been converted into a park and this view is from 17th street looking north. The scene was very high contrast, with white buildings in direct sun on the left side, and old dark red brick buildings in the shadow on the right side. I set the exposure to the street, but the white building are over exposed.
