I know NYC better than Paris! Cool shot, the whole of St Patricks like that, the cross well visible.

It's a nice 'sculpture' and absolutely stunning cathedral!

BTW: 'Atlas' is so fantastic sounded word, it has so broad and anthropological meaning. But my first association when I hear it, is... floor glue... Atlas - the most popular glue in Poland. Hate all the companies and brands which try to steal the names from myths, history and all human heritage which belong to us!

Very good shot! I've always been fascinated with this old church standing amidst towering skyscrapers.
