Description 17:10 for those outside the US. . .
Grand Central Terminal, Manhattan
New York

This was really a depth of field exercise.  I wanted to use 4 of the iconic elements of the interior of Grand Central: the clock in the center of the Terminal; the huge US flag;  the Train Information board; and chandeliers.  I'm still getting used to using the Zeiss lenses from my Hasselblad on a Nikon DSLR. . .

Thanks so much!
And I'm glad that Grand Central has received the appreciation it deserves.  It's a shame that Penn Station didn't get the same regard back in the 1960s. . .
Thanks again!
