20th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest The American Experience
View from Manhattan Bridge

This photo is showing the difference between the highs and lows of society and the hierarchy between. When looking at this, you can see the streets of Chinatown fully packed with cars and filled with graffiti, birthing life of what's real. The higher you go up, the skyscrapers have taken over beaming into the sky so they can be seen up from the stars. Yet between all this beauty, there is a divide between what is modern and what is seen on the street.
