Well, I'm not from NY, but I'll give it a shot. I saved the pic and turned up the gamma so I could actually see it. Looks like a couple burners and since the name of the file is boilerface.jpg, my guess is the burners from a boiler.

I'm gonna guess that it's an aerial view of a railway yard.
Which one...I don't know. Hell...I'm not even sure that's what it is.

Looks like there is a lens. And the underexposed clue... would lead me to guess part of a camera?

It's modern art. That's my answer and I am sticking to it.

Well Gator's close....... and so are several of you.
It is part of a steam boiler used to produce power in a pulp plant. Nothin' to do with New York tho' - I meant New Year!! (  Kiwis)
We'd just poured these oil guns - the "eyes" on the pic - in this fairly old boiler (1950s vintage, Foster Wheeler) so with my new digicam I took some pix.
I was looking at them on the computer while our daughter stood behind me.
"Look Mum! It IS haunted!! It's got a face!"
Some of the work really is art.
Filbert - we'd just FIXED it!
Grandma - Many have said that most of the places we work look like the entrances to hell, and we joke that they'll need plenty of brikkis there........
Jonny - one day I'll post a pic of my vibrator......... (the one we use to ram product in) (NO NO! NOT ram it in THERE!) but you'd dig the welding and steelwork - all stainless and a true work of industrial art which sadly, no-one ever sees ('cept us)
Thank you all for your guesses.
Silly file name tho'. Gave the show away. I'll fool y'all next time.........
BTW
it's only a few hours from midnight down here so
Happy New Year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
