New York – Brooklyn Bridge…

by on Apr.25, 2014, under Life, Photography

Having read a couple online guides to places to shoot whilst in New York – this spot at Brooklyn Bridge Park with views of both the Brooklyn and Manhattan bridges came up frequently

So I headed out one late afternoon to shoot sunset at this location (actually my main focus was to shoot the nearby poles with the Manhattan skyline behind during twilight but that’s coming soon :))

Note: These photographs (especially the wider shots) look much better when larger – so click any of the images below to see larger versions in an inline overlay slideshow gallery viewer.

There was a little colour in the sky heading towards sunset but it was mostly overcast so I pulled out the BigStopper for some long exposure work

If I’d had time I would have shot a long exposure panorama with a longer focal length, but as it was only around 40 minutes till sunset I was super keen to head around to the nearby location to shoot the poles at sunset so I made do with this regular pano
