Wow I just navigated away for a minute after looking at the New York to Toronto sky shot, and when I clicked back, you had already put up today's shot. Cool photo.
Posted by enduserx at October 26, 2005 01:48 AMWoW ... the building looks great and even more the photo.

Posted by paolo at October 26, 2005 02:52 AMA buddy took a similiar photo (http://www.flickr.com/photos/jedicam/43131840/ from a town I spent some time in as a youth.
Posted by Chris Nolan.ca at October 26, 2005 03:13 AMIt was painted by Richard Haas. Great artist.
Posted by Ken at October 26, 2005 03:21 AMis this a real structure?
wow so surreal!
structure makes me feel winter though,
sunlight and sky make me feel autumn
sorry, but i think this photo is a little bit boring. and i dont like that shadow on the bottom. just being honest. dont worry, youre still my favorite photographer online!
Posted by Jesse at October 26, 2005 04:52 AMSo appealing to the eyes. Excellent composition! The almost white and orange tone of the building makes a great contrast with the sky. Is the building all covered by those fake windows (except the 2 real windows)?
Posted by nuno f at October 26, 2005 06:22 AMYes! my ol' stomping grounds, thank you. Thank you.
Hope you had coffee @ Dantes : d
Posted by lyn at October 26, 2005 07:16 AMBeautiful.
Nice light & shadow.
Interesting shot. The sky looks very dark while the building looks to be somewhat burnt out. Hope you have some more good NY shots.
Posted by Justus at October 26, 2005 08:57 AMsomehow i like the title more than the shot.
Posted by flying cow at October 26, 2005 09:44 AMI don't care for this picture at all!!! I know the feeling you're going for, and the message is that suicide is okay, and I'm fine with that. My problem is that you have TWO available windows!!!!
Sam, people who are going to kill themselves are not in the mood to make any more decisions. That's what brought them up the stairs in the first place. So next time you're trying to do art reflecting life, reflecting blah, blah, blah. Try thinking about those of us who are just looking to end it. Stop being so selfish!!!
Coop.
P.s. I wish I could have a bite of your apple danish thing that you're eating right now. That's right. I see you!
Posted by keith at October 26, 2005 10:03 AMWhat makes this shot intriguing is the fact that you shot it when the sun was hitting the building from the same direction as the artist painted the shadows. It takes a while to actually determine there are fake windows (even though the paint is fading and peeling). Tell me, did you paint the building to get this shot? :)
Posted by Kevin at October 26, 2005 10:52 AMThe question in my mind is why, and what was the building created for? Certainly a bizarre facade.
Posted by Hugh Petrie at October 26, 2005 03:08 PMInteresting angle keith...
This picture is very surreal. I was having trouble at first trying to tell whether it's real or not. Its strange.
Posted by Phil at October 26, 2005 03:50 PMtook me a while to figure out that this was a painting... wow... cool pic too.
Posted by tee at October 27, 2005 12:04 AMGreat colors! I'm glad you made it to my favorite city, Sam!
Posted by Abe at October 27, 2005 03:04 AMbeautiful :o)
I miss east coast architecture so much.
Posted by e l i s s a at October 27, 2005 10:03 PMAs far as architecture goes, this is a pretty bland composition.
