So a word of news I forgot to mention. My mom returned by Nikon D40x. And replaced it with a Nikon D200. :) One of my first photos in NYC with the camera.

Great shot! The sun must have been hiding behind the clouds yes? I've been eying Nikon d40x! Which one do you prefer? :)

That's beautiful! Especially the sun's rays peeking from the clouds! The silhouette of the monument is great too!

I love the silhouette and the clouds are beautiful. A great first shot with your new camera.
I've just been brought a Nikon D40X all seems to be working well (only got it last night) Hopefully I will show the results tommorow. :)

Congrats on getting a D200, you can go out in all weathers with it, but its much heavier that the D40 you will find. Good first shot.

Great, I like the contrast between the silhouettes: high tech and traditional sculpturing craft.
