30 Rock and NYC in the thirties

Some desktop candy.
Even bigger versions here and here.



Man, that RCA building is a muddafokkin big building! I wonder why I've never really been aware of it.

  1. I have that lower one on a postcard. That lighting is just unreal. The even content of the air (haze, fog, smog) makes the layers of buildings look like a painted backdrop. The lower sun leaves very sharp shadows too.

    That and the classic Grand Central photo are a few of my NY faves.

    Thanks Eolake...
