p.1 #1 · World Trade Center Tribute - Nightscapes

This is the first year I have been back to shoot the lights since 2004. A lot has changed since then. The tribute lights have moved, the new 1 World Trade Center is high in the sky, and the Boardwalk in Brooklyn has been totally updated and made into a amazing park and place for people to stop and look at the amazing view overlooking the Manhattan Skyline. If you have never been there it is definitely worth the trip. I have been there many times and am always in aww everytime.

Here a couple of photos from that night, I tried to get some different angles and spots. I did a lot of walking to try and get these, and was also harassed by the police for going in areas I probably should not of, well I hope it was worth it and you enjoy them. C&C always welcome.

Thanks for looking

Shane

These are all very cool, but the third one is outstanding. Very nice work, with such an unusual foreground.

I agree with Jo on this one. All the images are wonderful; however, #3 is definitely my favorite with the strong and unique foreground.

I have always been a fan of your images, Shane. These are no exceptions! Great series overall.

These were taken in Brooklyn Bridge Park, correct?

Both of those images were I guess my attempt at some HDR, I took three images at different exposures and smashed them together.

Not really sure about the wavy horizons from http://www.fredmiranda.com/forum/topic/1128921 , they were huge panos and what you see is what I saw with the naked eye, if you have any suggestions on what you mean or how to change them please let me know.

Thanks Shane

thanks Lynn, Morris and Dean, everyone seems to like #2 so I printed a 24X36 canvas print and it came out pretty neat. Its amazing when you actually print your work out and hang it on the wall for evryone to enjoy.

Thanks for all the comments and feed back

Fantastic Shots Shane! Really Nice! First one of the set and then the "Classic View" are my favorites. All work for me except the vertical shot and the only thing that I would change is the white "Matte" the bottom of the photo seems to get lost a little bit. Still a great shot.
