Description
The distinctive triangular shape of the Flatiron Building, designed by Chicago architect Daniel Burnham and built in 1902, allowed it to fill the wedge-shaped property located at the intersection of Fifth Avenue and Broadway. The building was intended to serve as offices for the George A. Fuller Company, a major Chicago contracting firm. At 22 stories and 307 feet, the Flatiron was never the city's tallest building, but always one of its most dramatic-looking, and its popularity with photographers and artists has made it an enduring symbol of New York for more than a century.

You have a real knack for framing in your composition, Jessica. The flatiron building is in its natural surroundings here, as it should be. Yet your use of the branches and leaves set it off like it was the only thing in the picture and make it the center of attention - again, as it should be.
