Photo of the day: "Yotel Sunset 7," by Taran Rampersad

Today's photo of the day is entitled "Yotel Sunset 7" and is by Taran Rampersad. Taran is actually a reader of this website, a software developer and world traveler; a recent trip to New York City had him stuck in his hotel room for a day doing work things, so he took a series of photos out the hotel window throughout the day and night and then combined them together here via HDR. Do make sure to stop by Taran's main website as well, to learn more about what he does when he's not shooting photos.

Don't forget that I actually maintain a whole page of favorite photographs over at Flickr, for those who would like to see more. To express an interest in having your own work featured, just drop me a line at cclapcenter [at] gmail.com.
