This is a composite of 4 or 5 images.  I created a panorama of several
images of NY and the city across the river in Jersey, called Jersey
City.  I then added the Polar Coordinates technique and it created the
world technique.  I had seen it on the web in a variety of forms and
decided to add my own spin to it.  I desaturated the buildings and left
the color in the fire boat, Statue of Liberty and a few other areas to
highlight them.  I added some effects to the layers to make the world a
bit more three dimensional.
