Big Apple...
Posted by Charles (New York, United States) on 31 January 2009 in Cityscape & Urban and Portfolio.
Went into the city yesterday and took a few shots which I'll post over the next week...here is the not so new anymore Apple Store. I have another one or two of this genre which you'll see later....Thanks for visiting and as always helpful suggestions are greatly appreciated!

Terrific. My Macbook is enjoying it too, though feeling a little bit homesick as I bought it in that store.

Müge from Istanbul, Turkey
Hello Charles, I think this is a very nice shot and the B/W is a very good and original choice.
p.s. Sorry for not being able to visit your blog previously but I've been in Egypt since one week and this is the first time I've got connection to internet (I've finally arrived to Cairo from the south).

Cricket from Huntsville, United States
Ah....the big Apple. I love this. I need this picture blown up and added to my studio. The MAC is what keeps my home together these days. I wouldn't have anything but.
This is a fabulous picture.

@Cricket: How did you know I can be greatly swayed with flattery/honest appreciation!!...if you would like the raw file I can send it to you (NEF format from Nikon). There is another shot tomorrow with a slightly different angle (no apple). Thanks for the comment.
@Paula Camps: Thanks.
@Louise: Thanks.
