Night NYC From Brooklyn Bridge Park

Okay trying out these new headings . . .

Taken from Brooklyn Bridge Park on my recent trip up for the DUMBO Arts Under the Bridge Fest.







Lastly, this is the same view of a shot I have in PPG. I was leaving and thought to grab this at the last minute. It's handheld, not a long exposure on a tripod. But I'm still kicking myself for not getting the tripod set back up as it would be cool to have the two shots together. Oh well. Guess I'll have to take another trip back up there. Bummer.

Cool night shots #2 and #3 are my favorites well done.

[Jimbo]

I agree with Dave. #1 and 3 are excellent though I do like them all Mel. Well done. JIM

[Ash]

Nice ones Mel.
Yep, 1 and 3 are my faves too.
Well done.

[mel]

Thanks all! Yeah I have to agree on the 1 and 3 thing. But I had to throw in one of the Brooklyn Bridge as well. I love shooting in NYC. Such rich fodder for the camera.

Very nice night shots Mel, I haven't done night shots in years, ought to get out there,...

[mel]

Yes. You ought to. Lol. Thanks Heinrich

[Marc Langille]

Wow - these look spectacular to me.

Jer

[mel]

thanks both!

These are superior shots Mel. You've done a great job with them and have avoided one of the things that I hate about most nighttime city shots... brown skys. These look very natural.

Yes, great shots. But I like 2 and 3 best because of the build up of light on the water. Makes the skyline come to life.

These are great!

I'll give some additional love to #4 - I like the sense of place conveyed in the shot.
