Project 365 – Day 31
September 5, 2009
“The Water Tower”
It’s officially been a month since I started working on Project 365! A great feeling. We spent the day downtown, around Chinatown, Soho… There are always interesting things to see there, including people. Therefore, it is also a perfect location for street photography. In Chinatown, most signs are written exclusively in Chinese. Some streets even have their Chinese names under the English ones; a very exotic place in the heart of Manhattan. I glanced at a Citibank building reflection and had to take the shot. Besides the Chinese characters, you can see a water tower, a strange contraption that almost every building possesses in New York City. I find them extremely photogenic. I actually can’t imagine a rooftop shot without them now. As for the weather, it was great: blue sky and nice clouds, what else do you need?
