062/365 -LIC Broken Window

I flagged this image as a ‘rejected’ and two seconds after I went back and asked to myself "If this was the only picture that you have, what would you do it to save it?".. Then I un-flagged it and after a couple of clicks in Ligthroom I ended up with this. After all the pictures that I took yesterday I decided to go with this one.

Manhattanhenge July 2009 Photo Story

posted in: New York, Photography (Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , ) - 3 Comments

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
Manhattanhenge -July 12, 2009- 6

While buildings and objects are illuminated by the beautiful sunlight

Manhattanhenge -July 12, 2009- 2

At 8:00pm the sun starts kissing the buildings…

…and playing hide-and-seek
Hidding sun - Manhattanhenge 2009

While the sun is hiding, let’s admire the beautiful skyline
Manhattanhenge -July 12, 2009- 17

The sun’s reflection appears from the other side of the building and looks like a “double sun”

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…
