obviously inspired by my love of the city.

I originally wanted it to be a smallish header for a layout, but sort of turned out as a big one. I spruced up the text (it took me three hours to get simulate pressure to work) by adding the city skyline to the c in city, and adding the glowy lines. originally, only the blue one was there and I thought it wasn't enough. then I added the red one and now it feels like too much.
anyways. opinions/suggestions?

Those photographs are incredible! I like the font, as well. I prefer the second one, though.

I agree with it being a little too busy around the text. You should try removing the red swirl under the text and change the font color to red. Either that or try adding a black shadow to the white text, because it's a bit hard to understand it. Other than that, it's amazing.

oo, thanks for the tip! I added a red glow to the text.

also, I changed the top photo. the other one sort of wasn't fitting. new photo credit: amazingnewyorkcity
