Verona, New Jersey
I loved the isolation, scale, and monotone background of this one. Reminds me of a celebrity press photo. The background is today's overcast sky.
Image is sharpened for print/archiving, not web (I don't do that). "Steel eye" repaired a bit in photoshop, horizon adjust .5 degrees, background smoothed, NR on background, high pass sharpening, black level raised
