Hello!!
Looks like they got you something you are going to love!!
I love the blue sky in the sign picture and the road crossing is a neat idea..
I must say I am Jealous of these being taken this week, I have a foot of snow and -20 Celsius outside, although we do have blue sky today so I'm going out with the camera...

Congrats on the camera! Good luck in NYC. You'll have lots to photograph there.

I love the last picture, reminds me of scenes they have in films where a person just stands still with people rushing by well done(Y)

I love the car picture. I just can't get over how well its composed.

I'm contemplating using it as my desktop background.

I also really enjoy the car picture. The first one is quite the elaborate set up. Personally, I'd like the picture better if the top of it started just below The Body Shop sign and you saw a bit more below, but that's personal.

I love the car picture. The first one brings back memories, I always used to beg my mom to take me on that train in the Aventura mall.
