Last week’s entry in this series of Wednesday Window posts was a look back at the New England mills and their re-use. This week I am going for something a bit more current day. The use of glass and windows has changed dramatically during this time period. A big part of this has to do with the evolution of materials science, especially in the area of glass. Glass has become more resilient, adaptable and functional.

Here’s a look at a very large number of windows…

This look up in New York City has more windows than I want to count! The reflections on the different surfaces create visual interest from many angles, as we examine each tower.

I shot this image with my FujiFilm X-H2 with a slight bit of underexposure to reduce the brightness of the day. In processing, I used Adobe Camera Raw’s Modern 04 profile at 50% opacity to push the alien nature of the colors a bit more.

This is my mid-week contribution to the Monday Window thread, a creation of Ludwig Keck. To read more about Ludwig, check this page.
