Very good composition IMO. Nice simetry and texture. The top of the lowest building in the bottom of the photo is a little burned out and it draws to much attention. I would therefore try to minimise its impact. Nice view, otherwise... which no longer exists.
Parabéns pelas fotografias. Talento que sobre, sem dúvida nenhuma.

I like this tight view of the buildings. I like seeing just the top of the Woolworth Building and just part of the Municipal Building. It's a nice mixture of the older buildings in the area. It seems a bit soft, however. Some sharpening perhaps. And maybe a little play of contrast would be helpful. But I really like this tight view of this corner of the city. It gives it an old feel, especially in the black and white, of Manhattan perhaps 60+ years ago.

Very nice view, Rute. Your choice of black & white, and the fact that you pointed your camera towards the Woolworth Tower, the Municipal building and all the other older architecture around, gives your shot a "timeless" feel - like Paul wrote, it might as well have been taken in the 1930s or 1940s. A lot of distinctive architctural details can be explored here; the only regret I have is that the photo is not a little bigger ;-) Well done.
