Below is an excerpt from my hdr travel blog www.LostManProject.com. I've just returned from traveling the world and I have a lot of photos to post. Please feel free to tag along with me on my travels. Cheers!

There's no skyline like the New York Skyline. Built on the island of Manhattan, this island is one of the most densely populated areas in the world. 1.6M people live within an area no bigger than 23 square miles. It's also one of the most wealthy areas in the world. The average personal income per capita over 0,000 as of 2005. With the entire island filled up with buildings, it's no wonder that New Yorkers have taken to the sky. The view from the top of the Rockefeller Building (shown here) looking downtown is one of the most impressive views in the city.

You might also find it interesting that New York City is one of the greenest places in all of the United States. It seems a little counterintuitive, considering the entire island is a concrete jungle but it's true. There's a great article on this topic e360.yale.edu/content/feature.msp?id=2203 if you're interested.

States


Image by Al_HikesAZ

This is the view of Superstition Mountain from Lost Dutchman State Park. The Siphon Draw trail starts here off the Discovery Trail and heads up to the Flatiron and the Ridgeline.

This is just east of Apache Junction off of the Apache Trail at the Lost Dutchman State Park in the western end of the Superstition Wilderness and at the western end of the Superstition Mountain Ridgeline.
