#852, Flatiron

One of the very last things I photographed in NYC, the Flatiron building was something else that I was determined to see. While it's a remarkable building, and an early example of a steel-framed skyscraper, it was also the subject of a very important photograph by Alfred Stieglitz.

I haven't yet decided if my next day trip will be a return to New York, but if it is then this is one of the reasons why I'd be tempted to bring my big Fuji camera.

I have broken the links to hundreds and hundreds of photos, which will take a long time to repair. The workaround is to replace "photo.matthewpiers" in the link URL with "matthewpiers.smugmug". Awkward, but only temporary.

This is happening because I have revamped matthewpiers dot com. More of what I write and photograph will be going there, so check it out as well.
