The current Longwood Gardens are what's become of the Dupont summer estate. West of Philadelphia in Kennett Square, most days their parking lot is full of tourist buses, and you hear almost as many languages on the grounds as in the Empire State Building. It's a great place to visit and photograph any season of the year.

Skyline, New York City

An urban landscape featuring the Empire State Building from what used to be the RCA Building, taken on a grey, fogged-in winter day when the wind suddenly picked up and blew everything eastward, and the sun lit the western sides of all the buildings. If you know what to look for you can even see the Brooklyn Bridge.
