The New York Metropolitan Skyline Photo Collection




It’s worse than yesterday with the smoke - it’s stinky, there’s a god-awful yellow tint to everything and the air feels ‘thick’ and hard to breathe.

what kind of smog is that?

Completely surreal day in NYC today. Unedited photo.

Canada’s got a ton of wildfires going on and it’s smoke was blown here by the wind causing the air to become sickly yellow and quite hard to breathe along with smelling like fire. It’s so bad that the sun is not even visible. It’s awful. I can normally see NYC from the beach, but that’s not the case today. My photo is unedited, this is what you see.

I was gonna say Coruscant. Tall buildings and a hazy sky

Not really a skyline photo, just a little :pinching_hand:, kind of terrifying in the office. The picture doesnt really capture just how orange/thick it got.

Today at 3 PM. Still bad, but you can actually see most of the skyline and the sky again. By me, it’s also infinitely better in terms of air quality as well with the smoke smell not being really noticeable.

Clever headline, but in reality blame the entire world since the mid-1800s.
