    You are the master of abstract “landscape” photography, Michael. Your imagination is beyond the next level. Thank you so much for continuing to provide us with your insight. Your work is spectacular!!

    That flatiron image with the clouds is world class Michael!

    Amazing images. I think my fav is the one where the weird shape building looks like a waterfall-4:10 into the vid. Very cool.

    The NYC High Line is one of my favorite walks for photography. The reflections in the windows are always changing and make for interesting abstracts. The time-lapse of the window reflection and cloud movement was quite novel and one I will be experimenting with. Enjoyed the video.

    @JonasHholt 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

    The v-shape/triangle shot is spectacular. I'm fascinated by how unique each of these reflections stand out when zoomed in. Really enjoyed watching!

    I'm sensing Salvador Dali in the melted building reflections. Beautiful!

    The building with the semi-transparent shell is called The Shed. Smart-ass mode off 🙂 Love your videos! I have no favourite, i like them all. I love New York City!

    Hello, I discovered your bideos this week and I am completely enchanted by your look. I thought I saw certain landscapes wrong and I realized that I didn't. I am very happy and admired.❤❤❤❤

    My favorites were #8, followed by 18, then 4. So a great perspective to "see" the artwork that most likely is unseen by people everyday.

  • @thedarkslide
    @thedarkslide 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    3:39 For reference, take a look at Magnum photographer Sabine Hornig and her work, for example "From Day and Night. 2021." This instantly reminded me of her work.

    Never seen this channel & it came up as a suggestion.
    So thought "Ah why not have a look".
    Worst thing that can happen is I waste a few seconds of my life & move on".
    With that calming voice - I was hooked, stayed to the end, liked & subscribed.

  • @ratgirl13
    @ratgirl13 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    You might enjoy photographing The Vessel next time-the reflections off it are fantastic especially when people are in them-it can look surreal. I liked all the photos, I’m here from Fototrippers channel. Subscribing.

    @VictorReynolds 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    5:51 This is my favorite image. I photographed the building on the right in the past. Great images!

  • @MarcelZ
    @MarcelZ 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Nice shots as always. Number 9 is my favorite. But the abstract shots are also very nice. :)

  • @ulftornert2855
    @ulftornert2855 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    My goodness! It really doesn't get any better than this. If I could come up with a tiny, tiny fraction of what you're creating here, I'd consider myself successful. Thanks for the inspiration, Michael!

  • @danapatterson4076
    @danapatterson4076 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    The vertical image with the clouds swirling above is incredible, but I’ll be honest, the timelapses are my favorite… those really took my breath away. All of them - Amazing! 🤩

  • @AlaskaBrian
    @AlaskaBrian 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Your older Flatiron shots as well as the shot at 8:29 are my personal favorites, though there are some other really great ones also. Almost makes me wish I lived closer to a big city to try some of these ideas out for myself!

  • @michaelbottari6398
    @michaelbottari6398 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    My favorite No. 9.

    Hi Michael, thank you for sharing this inspirational vid and your thought process on cityscapes! I really like the diagonal in number 7 and the "'new tech/old school" separation between the bottom and top of the picture. 💪🏻🙂

  • @EzyYoutube

    My favourite has to be number 9 the bright blue sky combined with such a clean composition really a treat for my eyes ! amazing images all around !

  • @PrinceJvstin
    @PrinceJvstin 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I am torn between the building and clouds image, and that last reflection as my favorite. I do like reflections in my own work, but this is next level in terms of reflection creativity

    @taraelizabethlivinglife4094 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I am not much of a city girl, but this video really caused me to open my mind a bit more to it. Thanks for sharing. Also, I loved that last photo you shared and the time lapse of the reflections on the buildings. 👍

  • @john-paulthompson4932
    @john-paulthompson4932 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    My favourite photo is the inversion that has the Triangle at the bottom. I like it because the Triangle appears encapsulated within the frame of the building. I've a street photography trip into London planned in the next few days. I will be looking for opportunities to use the Tele Lens instead of the 50mm. Thank you for posting.

  • @rayeverett2434

  • @diegomorsy4529

    I’ve been several times in NYC but I’ve never thought about this “kind” of photography, I was always focused on sunsets , night cityscapes or light trails.
    Thanks for sharing!

  • @NeilArthurs
    @NeilArthurs 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Absolutely wonderful video. New York City is a photography wonderland and you have captured it so beautifully!
    The time-lapse of the reflection turned out great, almost like an ocean behind the building.

  • @randyschwager2515

    @gregs2466 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I could not pick a favorite. They all were fantastic! Mike, I think you are my favorite photographer or at least top five. You and I are similar in that we both like taking photos of different things.

  • @TomHeiden
    @TomHeiden 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Can't pick just one. First I like them all ... then I'll winnow it down to #'s 4, 8 and 12....The colors are so bright and abstract

  • @vargavideo

    @JosdeHorde-py3rz 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I like the second photograph from the right at the bottom on the overview. The form, shape and colours of the reflected sand coloured building reminds me of the organic architecture of the famous Spanish architect Antoni Gaudi.

  • @michaelcoleman5058
    @michaelcoleman5058 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Your images are great, they remind me of my many walks in San Francisco shooting reflections of buildings like the Bank of America building. I was a student in the early 1970,s and could only afford B&W film, but my images are similar to what you created in NY. Great memories. Mike

    Maybe your best ever YT video. I loved it. So creative and inspiring I can't wait to get out and try this (I live in Shanghai - an incredible place for this type of photography). Next to last shot at 11:16 was my favourite (the 'gothic' green and gold building you did a timelapse of).

    Really enjoyed seeing you in a different environment. And how your process is still very similar.
    Also, telephoto for the win! Absolutely love my 100-400. And just recently upgraded to the RF100-500. You're videos are the reason I got more and more into telephoto! Picking out far away details, abstract images and even close up macro type shots. Opened up a whole new world for me.
