Manhattanhenge or Manhattan Solstice
It’s a beautiful phenomenon that happens twice a year when the sun perfectly lines up with Manhattan’s grid.
I want to share some pictures that I took today (July 12th, 2009) from the Pulaski Bridge of Manhattanhenge on and around 38th street:
The waiting starts on the Pulaski Bridge
While buildings and objects are illuminated by the beautiful sunlight
At 8:00pm the sun starts kissing the buildings…
…and playing hide-and-seek
While the sun is hiding, let’s admire the beautiful skyline
The sun’s reflection appears from the other side of the building and looks like a “double sun”
Hiding again between buildings
I can still see you!
Another peek and he’s on his way to pass through 38th street
Let’s just wait to see him coming…
Peek-a-boo!
Half sun..
8:22pm Enjoy your Manhattanhenge
Good Night

Happy Independence Day!
The fireworks in New York city this year were in the Hudson River and, honestly, I wasn’t expecting to see any, but we were able to go to a friend’s roof in Manhattan (43rd street & 9th ave) and we had the chance to see some nice booms and bangs between the buildings!
Comments would be very much appreciated!

Few minutes after the show it’s over, you can see the people walking down 42nd street and the ‘nice’ traffic jam
