A juxtaposition of several high-rises next to each other at night. No sky is visible, just walls of apartments, filling out the image. Probably several thousand to ten thousand homes. There is a wall of inset and outset homes to the left, they look like balconies and are white and red colored. A similar structure rises to the right, although no red walls can be seen. One apartment glows golden. In the middle a blue-greenish skyscraper rises and fills the whole image. It has two tower-like pillars with windows as well as some space inbetween. It’s a surreal scene.
A brick wall stands firm, two elongated windows with green frames and curved tops, framed in its plane. A small sign points towards 581 20th St Receiving. In the windows a Substation is being reflected, making sure that one doesn't get lost in when this image was taken.
A photo up a curved glass wall, it almost perfectly reflects a building that seemingly is made of metal and plates, it is industrial in a way and seemingly is very central in another. The image is overall rather grey-blue
A heavily layered portrait image of eight buildings of various sizes. To the left and right are presumably skyscrapers, buildings that have no visible roof nor bottom. The leftmost one has a complex emergency staircase with a slight golden color, the rightmost one is white with black windows reflecting a golden shine. Inbetween four smaller grey block buildings are huddled, all with emergency stair cases and various tones of grey. Another two buildings are framed in the back by all other structures. One has a reddish sandstone color with a rounded, tower like edge, while the other seems to be a massive block, maybe a skyscraper even. It’s white, with evenly spaced windows and a tiny flag ontop.
A yellow cab waits patiently infront of a sandstone building with darkened, large framed windows. The building and windows aling perfectly with the photos frame. However the street the taxi is parked on and the taxi itself are slightly slanted to the left, there is a slight slope on the street. The cab stands out with its intense yellow and the large black letters
A photo into an empty hall with a green grey glow to it. Many lamps along the vast sealing illuminate the room. There is a shallow staircase leading up. The room is mostly empty except for a sole group of chairs
A large glass-front fills almost the whole frame from the bottom right to the top left. It is quite reflective while also being rather black. A walkway leaves the wall in the top left corner, leaving the frame immediately. It's reflection, however, fills the whole frame, giving the illusion that it continues at an angle within the building.
Photographed from beneath with a dutch angle, the Chinese looking building complex tries to reach the sky. It's a fully sandstone-grey complex with a hint of pastel green every here and there. One building fills the whole front of the photo, while the second image, further away, looks up into the sky, reaching far higher than the first one. Its round facade decorations on the two buildings give it a chinese vibe. The image is bleak, moody, and eye catching instantaneously.
A photo of several walls, maybe representing a skyscraper with red-brown sides and long vertical window stripes. Two different walls are visible, both run in very different angles to another
