#6 The New York Sunlight

There's something special about the light in Manhattan - that grid of deep valleys running between the towering buildings creates some amazing shadows and sun angles. For us, the most impressive and (we think) largely unnoticed phenomenon is the stunning and ethereal reflections created when the sun bounces off the windows of one building onto the facade of another.  This short film shows some of those amazing effects.
