The United Nations buildings as seen from across the East River from Long Island City which will be my entry for @juliank’s daily photo contest for info check out the FAQ page
This is for the Friday Travel Photography theme,
When I first came to NYC I worked on the 22nd Floor of the main building with views across the East River.
I thought it was cool catching a yacht sailing by as I took this shot which I guess also ties into the travel photography theme.
Nopw the other white things in this photo is the Circle of white by the Centre of the tall building.
Do you know what it is?

Did you guess right, this is what that is, a fairly large Satellite Dish Antenna, I know for many this may not be of interest, but in the Field I installed and maintained many of these dishes, and I actually have worked on this one in my early days here in NYC, Now it is primarily for backup as most of the connectivity is on leased lines these days, but back in the day much of our communications to and in Missions was via Satellite links

And this shot is taken by Tudor City and is probably the virew of the UN Builddings that many see from the Manhattan side rather than across the water.
