I have always wanted to capture the New York skyline but was never able to. This time I went early to the Brooklyn Bridge Park and sat down in the hopes of getting that shot. As you can see, I was lucky enough to get this beautiful shot of this awesome city.

While this is a picture thousands of people had taken, I was working just on the Brooklyn side of the Brooklyn Bridge and so I took my camera and tripod with me and took this image.

This is one of the best places to view the sunset in New York City. Over on the Brooklyn side in Dumbo is this cove that offers views of the Brooklyn Bridge, Jane’s Carousel and the Manhattan Skyline.

I was in New York for a friends birthday and as we walked along the water next to Jane’s Carousel, I saw these two girls sitting here eating ice cream and chatting and it felt very classic.

Set my tripod on the edge of the river and waited for the sun to go down. The lights of the city really make the skyline sparkle at night.

Skyline in Brooklyn Bridge Park, United States

When the sun started to go down there was a big cloud blocking the show. I turned around and started walking up this bridge. I was trying to get a picture of some ivy against a wall when I made it 3/4 the way up that bridge. I turned around and saw the sky open up and turn a golden purplish color. This was one of the coolest sunsets I’ve ever seen.

Landmark in Brooklyn, United States

This shot was taken on my first trip to NYC late last summer. Brooklyn was near the top of my list of places to check out while I was there. I loved the architecture in this area, it seemed that every corner you turned was filled with another picturesque city street (but maybe that was just the awe of experiencing NYC for the first time hitting me full force). We walked around for hours, exploring as many shops and streets and alleyways as we could before the light started to fade. We hung out in Empire Fulton Ferry Park watching the lights of the financial district slowly come on.

One of the coldest days I have ever experienced. Sunny, below freezing and the wind must have been blowing 50 mph through lower Manhattan. As we exited the 9/11 Memorial, I had to capture this image of the Freedom Tower, frozen in time.

  3 km from Lower Manhattan


I was wandering around Brooklyn’s riverside at dusk when I stumbled upon East River State Park and a closed off pier. I was able to rig up this long exposure poking my lens through the fence. It was a hot summer evening and the park was bustling so shooting this deserted pier really felt like a luxury!

This was my second time in NY city and I had a mission to take a good picture of this landmark because I failed to do it first time. I used my Joby Gorillapod and ND filter in order to capture a crisp long exposure shot and spent quite some time sitting on the ground, playing with different settings, trying to catch a perfect vehicle trail.
