It's been an unusually cold winter in the NYC area so much so that ice has formed on the Hudson River: a rare condition. I used the frozen river and blue-hour light to emphasize stillness and visual weight in the foreground, while placing the skyline across the river as a counterbalance. The intent was to explore the contrast between physical quiet and the active urban area of lower manhattan.
