    Not a game player, but I looked up Bioshock and watched a video on the game. It does fit into that. I had to look up Ooof as well. A lot is going on that can knock the wind out of you in these times. Thank you for looking and commenting.

    The woman with the microphone is the photo's subject in this photo. Everything else is background in this case. https://www.photokonnexion.com/3249-2/

    It's kind of interesting. Not crazy about the distracting background. I would crop it to bring all the attention to her face if it were mine. Just a thought.

    NYC Bridge

    Yes ! Just like that. :) Thank you for taking the time. Now I'm thinking of treating the other images I took that day of buildings, bridges, and waterfront powerplants in the same way. It was a clear sky and very uninteresting to me.

    NYC Bridge

    Thank you, Les. It's a very tall tower and brings a lot of unwanted sky into the picture. The building is the Freedom Tower that replaced the World Trade Center. It is an Iconic building but not necessarily known for its tower, like the Empire State Building. The noisy sky went by me when...

    NYC Bridge

    I can't remember the name of this bridge. It might be the Manhattan Bridge. Took the picture from the East River Ferry recently. Thank you for looking. Comments welcomed.

    Yes, it's going to be an adventure. I want to go and spend time in Navajo Nation. I lean towards documentary and street photography. I'm not particularly good, but sometimes I'm pleased with my results.

    Any New York experts?

    Check out the East River ferry service. You can take a ferry from Wall Street to Ferry Point Park in the Bronx. Travel up the East River under its many bridges and through Hell's Gate. A very scenic ride for $2.75 for each direction. About 45 to 50 min each way.
