Snapshot NYC- Yash Bhardwaj

Penetrating the sky with a sudden force, the giants slowly rise from the ground. Destroying everything in their path, the giants perplex all the creatures in their vicinity. Everyone is forced to take notice, while trembling with fear and admiration. Everything comes to a stand still, the cars, the people, the air, and even mother nature. The rays from the sun embellish the giants by giving them an unnatural beauty. Seeing these 5 giants stand without fear, other giants slowly come out of their caves. Slowly but steadily, the giants show that they are a force to be reckoned with.

    There is certainly a giant-like quality about the five buildings but I think calling them such only distracts the reader. This is a round about way of dealing with the architecture by not dealing with the architecture but calling it something else. It gives the buildings a kind of life but i’m not sure how that illuminates the photography or the prose. What happens if you deal with the architecture as architecture and the city as the city? What happens if you zero in on an urban image and let that express the narrator’s impression?
