Christmas, Park Avenue - 1993
As I remember it - I kept rushing out into the street with the Pentax 6x7 on a tripod and I kept thinking I was going to be hit by a car from behind - (raining heavily at the time) - and I never printed it because the shot is a touch crooked - but when I saw the "lit cross" today in the Met Life Building (which is why I bothered taking it in the first place) I decided it was worth working on.

jeff - this was TMY - shot with the Pentax 6x7. Now the second shot from the big monster to make it to the blog. (Crossing Brooklyn Bridge was first). It's going to be very nice at 16 x 20.
I liked XP2. The only problem was that various labs all seemed to give different results. But I would use it in a pinch.
Hi Michael - gee. Don't know. I'm looking at the home page with Internet Explorer and with Firefox and the comment line shows up as a gold color. E-mail me and let me know what browser you're using; Mac or PC - and - well those are all the variables I can think of.
Anyone else with the same problem?
Jeff - Yup. I realized that as I was falling asleep. That's exactly what it is. Will change it shortly. (Though fascinating it doesn't happen in Firefox which is what I usually use).
Should be fixed now (link color for posts). Difference in how browsers deal with DIV tags. You should see comment link as gray.
Great photo, Dave! My only nit is in the description - it's the Henley Bldg (formerly NY Central Bldg) that has the lighted cross, not the Met Life Bldg.
I remember being quite irked by this display as a young Jewish Manhattenite in my 20's (1970's). Now it wouldn't bother me.
Steve - wasn't it the Helmsly (sp?) building? With the Lovely Leona who went to the klink etc.
And what was it at other times - the Pan-Am building? My mind is blank. Trans Atlantic building? The Tri-X building?
