Been away for a while, hence my lack of comment / posts

Manhattan from Brooklyn Bridge Park

I like this a lot Stravinsky

That's a really  cracking view and unusual too ... great perspective  with that foreground drawing you in   to that dramatic  and unmistakable skyline ...  Nicely processed too Strav..... ...

i must admit that I have seen this viewpoint used before but usually as a night shot.  The light in this one though is stunning.  Lovely shot.

Thanks, yes my intention was to go there late in the evening, but the sun sets over almost behind the buildings and I know you have to get the light on them.  Plus the fact I'd be wandering around a park in the dark with £4k's worth of photo equipment with me .   I did take some night pictures over the other side, but there's not a huge amount of colour, as there is for instance with a night shot of Hong Kong where everything is neon

I had a work colleague who was relieved of his much loved Leica not 30yds from his hotel on the way to a local restaurant after the concierge had warned him to take a taxi even though the restaurant was within walking distance.  So in the park after dark would be a definite no no.

Brilliant image of an iconic skyline

First class photography - I just love the composition.
