 Olive Oil       

那些花儿

这些照片中的街头？还有多少是昨天的风景？

橄榄油

是的, 无可置疑, 纽约是显得有点旧. 可这城市呈现的是人类建筑史上百年前的辉煌一页. 怎可拿她与国内现代新兴的建筑同日而论呢? 再说, 从建筑艺术的角度看, CHRYSLER BUILDING的建筑风格仍被公认为人类建筑艺术史上的里程碑!     本贴由[橄榄油]最后编辑于：2007-1-27 15:34:21   ---    Olive Oil

行者

  经典！ 不过据说工人在钢架（铁塔）上面休息的系列照片是伪造的，油兄可知真假？

大清太平

  那么高，也没见安全设施，是有点替古人担心哈。黑白像片纪录经典时刻，别有味道！

Your Cyber Friend

  Amazing，这么多年下来还能认出老纽约的痕迹！值得New Yorker油兄珍藏！

顶顶大腕卧底

向阳屯

  对纽约不熟。如果将现在与过去对比着看，一定会更有味道的。

这个世界从不缺乏美，

缺乏的是发现美的眼睛！
