NEW YORK - LOOKING UP 

This project began with a need for aerobic exercise. 
I began taking long walks in the city.  Following a limited
number of routes and seeing the same store fronts every
time out, I began turning my gaze elsewhere -- and eventually up.

I discovered a city that I never knew existed.  Many of the buildings,
hidden by rather banal store fronts at ground level,
displayed a sculptural beauty of light and shadow when you look up.

I began doing some research on the architecture, and
then also added my camera to the walks.  The result is
this project.
