Brooklyn bridge Photo

Photographer’s Note

Maybe a bit cliche, but it still is amazing view over Manhattan at sunset. I was lucky to have a few clouds to add some colors to the sky!!! 10 minutes after I took this shot, an army of ~20 german photographers with super fancy cameras tripods and other pieces of kit that I had never seen invaded the place. A pitty that they arrived too late ;-)

Hello Nicolas! Great shot, it seems like dusk or dawn is great light for city skyline shots. Very good composition and sharpness.

Regards,
Doug

Lovely shot.. the lights reflecting on the river are fascinating and well combined with the lights of the skyscrapers. Perfect perspective. The blue hour is well catched.
Well done.

Salut Nicolas,
belle prise, le ciel est encore clair et tu as fait un bel effet avec les lumières étoilées, la perspective est aussi bien vue.

Salut Nicolas,
Oui c'est classique mais reussit,tu as appliqué la bonne recette:petite ouverture qui fait etoiler les lumiere et fige l'eau par le long temps de pause,et surtout le meilleur moment pour le ciel crepusculaire,je regrette juste la presence de ces grosses amarre en 1er plan,
beau job,
vincent

Hi Nicolas
Impressive shot and nice exposure control. I like the detail you have eeked out in this shot and the range of colours. The two boulders in the foreground are a little intrusive but still work well. Good shot.

I hate to pick at a such a lovely well-controlled image as this, but I'm kind of bothered by the two pylons sticking up out of the water. I know you wanted something in the foreground for this kind of shot, but these two posts are so dark that they don't read well. But they draw my eye too them and don't really resolve. I think one other poster felt the same way. But an immaculate job on the skyline and our loveliest bridge. -Hugh
