Info Walked up the west side of Manhattan, New York City last month and like this as an example of what that area generally looks like. Lots of landmark buildings here (see map labels/notes). created/uploaded/nominated by — Rhododendrites ^talk | 21:05, 15 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Strong support Wow! This feels much more lively and "3D" than such city panos usually do (...and I sorted all the FP panos a while back...) I also like that the people in the photo really adds to it for once. --Cart (talk) 21:28, 15 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment The stitching error on the "frying pan" should be easy to fix.--Ermell (talk) 06:14, 16 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Ah yes, I see it. Thanks. Will fix when I finish work tonight. — Rhododendrites ^talk | 14:21, 16 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Strong support An excellent look at a very 21st-century part of Manhattan, a take on how the city's skyline is evolving. Also, I like how the boats in the foreground, even if just personal craft, are a reminder of the city's history, its beginnings as (like so many other of today's great global cities) a port, even if it does very little of that today (How many decades ago would this whole area have been, or been seen as, a seedy low-rent district of warehouses and flophouses?)
You could add some more notes, if possible ... the high-rises in Cliffside Park at far left, and whatever those buildings are above the Javits Center (a/k/a these days: "Where the Auto Show is held"—does anybody ever go there for any other event?) Daniel Case (talk) 16:29, 18 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. Please do go ahead and add labels if you spot something that could use them. As for Javits, I give you BookExpo, Comic Con, and (last year anyway) PetCon. I had also planned to attend Anime NYC to take pictures, but when I got there (a) I had just been to Comic Con, which is much better for that sort of thing, and (b) I saw PetCon was on the other end of the building, and, well, c'mon. :) — Rhododendrites ^talk | 18:03, 18 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

So now you are officially a "poodle photographer". :-D Thanks for the link to PetCon, you made my day! --Cart (talk) 08:50, 19 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I am that. A small poodle in particular is typically one of the first subjects when I get a new lens/camera, even. Don't know if I've ever uploaded an image of that one, though. :) — Rhododendrites ^talk | 14:35, 19 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comic Con is rather a newcomer, and the other events ... well, like I said, most Greater New York residents I know of go there for the Auto Show and nothing else. Daniel Case (talk) 05:15, 21 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
