I went out to Jersey City to capture this beautiful reflection on the summer solstice. It was just my luck that a perfect sunset ensued, thanks to the humidity on the sun's horizon adding a bright color to the sky being reflected by the buildings. Aiding the image is a striking symmetry, with all of the leading lines and weight of the photo directing your attention to One World Trade Center.
At 1,349 megapixels, this photo has numerous details to explore. I particularly like the parties that are occurring on the yachts in the harbor - the same yachts and harbor featured in countless films that portray Wall Street luxury. I guess it's only fitting that a photo featuring the epicenter of excess is one of the highest resolution digital photos ever created.
