Is this a photo or is it a manipulation? All the elements in this picture seem so independent of each other that it feels like they were cut out of other images and placed here.
Which is extremely interesting! I don't know too much about photography; that's a field reserved for a close friend of mine.

What I will say is that I like the space that the sky occupies in the image. Very nice.

FYI, this is a scene of lower Manhattan, probably taken from the Staten Island or Sunset ferry. It's a good photo but the buildings do not appear to be manipulated.

Interesting! I haven't been around that part of New York for too long.

It's a nice photo!

...Yeah, I know nothing about photography. Still, this raises questions: 'at the same moment', what? What's in symbiosis? So that's good, I think, especially for the photo to act as a prompt.

Of the photography pieces for this contest, this is probably my favorite. It's the one that feels closest to a real "art" piece, in terms of what we often consider to be art. I know the artist must've used Photoshop to get this particular look, and I don't care, because it's pretty damn striking.

The sign at the bottom-left is just icing on the cake, and it can be taken in a number of ways. Impressive for something that was probably meant something innocuous in real life.

Yeah, that’s New York... Are the buildings standing against the sky? I’m guessing that’s it. I don’t think the image has been manipulated, there’s a reason NYC is screwed during storm surges.
