Which of These Things Doesn't Belong? (NYC, April 2009)

Shot from a low angle looking up at the world-famous "Flatiron Building" and the "Fifth Avenue Building Clock." But something is very wrong here! Which of these things doesn't belong?

PHOTOGRAPHER's NOTE: Oh well, since nobody bit the title's teaser, I'll just come out and tell you... My original photo featured the building and clock... exactly as shown. But they were set off against an incredibly boring white background (featureless, high clouds). Boring! And so then I added the sky, clouds and trees from a photo that I lifted off the Web. Not happy still, I returned to the Web looking for a Pterodactyl and found this funky bird instead and then, in a final flourish, I recruited this giraffe from the Web to join in on the party.

High resolution original being prepared for printing as a large poster and will be available for sale. These photos were taken by me over a 4-year period off of my balcony. The composite was also done by myself, using Photoshop and the original high-rez images (not the ones posted here on Flickr which are all small and low-rez). This poster will be updated over time to improve its aesthetics. Constructive suggestions as to how to improve this as a poster are appreciated. Check back to see its evolution. I love NY!

Pooped & Pensive Panda Ponders Apocalyptic Pandemic (NYC, April 2009)

The world's saddest panda is seen here hanging out in Bowling Green, Manhattan (a block North of beautiful Battery Park and New York Harbor). Could this panda be pondering the flu pandemic reaching New York City? Could there be a Panda Phlue on the way?
