EPIC!! Wow, this is hands down one of the best NYC & Philly threads that i've ever seen posted here!
Were you commissioned to take any of those shots inside the capitol building?
Also, I wanted to share a YouTube video of mine where I ride a citibike around lower Manhattan. I saw your comment about how you rode your bike around NYC. Did you bring it to Philly as well? Have you heard of the citibike program in NYC? I think it is coming to Philly soon. It is one of the best ways to see NYC in my opinion.
I also like how you took some shots at the fire scene. I love doing that. Sometimes i feel bad riding my bike to the 'scene' b/c it is someone's home being destroyed and I feel a little voyeuristic about the whole thing. I am really interested in the Fire fighters doing their job, and trying to see if i can get a before & after shot (i've filmed almost every street in my neighborhood over the years). I find that sort of stuff fascinating.
Here is the youtube video i mentioned...
