DescriptionUnstretched. Image of a street corner in New York. The image uses bright, bold colors to accentuate the different building structures. A small figure (bottom right) can be seen walking on the pavement; the buildings capture an eccentric liveliness of a typical urbanscape. This include tall pink high rises (background), an orange building with green windows (right), light blue slanted wall, and neon green signage (upper left).
