Well, as voting is over, I'd like to say something about this picture
too. When I saw it first, then I was literally shocked and unable to do
anything for couple of minutes, instead I just stared it. 
Almost everything good is said about this picture, but there is one
thing, what disturbs me: windows. They look unrealistic: it's raining,
man is using umbrella, rear shield is covered with water, but windows in
second building left seem to be open? And it buildings backward too (or
they are a little bit dark, IMVHO they should be brighter). Moreover,
those building windows do not look appropriate for such city, they seem
to be from other (Mediterranean ?) area..
OK, OK, I will shut up now, as I'll never make picture with such
quality, I've never been in NY and I don't know a droplet about art;-)
I'm only regretting, that picture has such proportions, that I can't use
it as background. Otherwise I'd admire it after every minute ("Minimize
All Windows" item will be worn out!).
