Wow look at all of that! I love the scale of the cityscape here, not only you get to see how vast the area is, but you can actually imagine just how tiny you in comparision. Perfect picture!

Wow! This is a fantastic shot. Great focal point that is well enhanced. I love the colors that were picked up.

This almost looks as though it should be on a calendar.

This is a fabulous shot. How can you take such a great shot from a plane. Where is it. The buildings are so defined and clear. Did you take this yourself. Its fantastic

This is a great view of the city but perhaps not the best angle for a photograph. Although, you do get a sense of the height of some of those skyscrapers compared to the little buildings in the background.

What an amazing scene, and view. Looked at this shot for ages as I have never seen anything like it. Have travelled Europe and Asia, and am Australian, and I don't think anywhere I went could rival this scene. Was interested in two bridges which seem so close together. Best wishes.

NIce picture. I dont' see any distortion form the glass which is nice. I actually like seeing the tip of the wing in this type of picture to make you feel more a part of it. Keep it up.

i tend not to like city scapes that much but this is really good showing the sheer size and wealth of manhattan. shame its not quite in focus but guessing that may be something to do with it being optimised for the web page

This is one of the best if not the best view I have ever seen of Manhatten.
Each building of the city stands out clearly. Good colors with another great shot of the bridge. I liked how the surrounding land was captured as an outlay

    Thanks for the feedback. It was my first attempt to take pictures from a plane, so now I'll do that more often.

:) Wow! What an incredible shot of a cityscape. The most striking element...the centralized waterflow surrounding this backdrop and surrounding landscape humming with life. It's amazing what a birdseye view can do for one.

Very clear cityscape, with some haze, but still the visibility is good. Good angle of photography capturing different areas in one view. Need to play a little with colors, to take off some of the blue color

    Thanks for the critics. I know there's a little bluish cast, but I didn't like any variations I could get playing with colours...
