Manhattan by day

by Carol8345

A few months back I posted the night version of this. Here is the daytime view, with a low tide.

Thank you. This was my second trip back to the same location. I'm pretty happy with the results.

I took this from the Brooklyn side. Back in the day, the East River was a very busy Waterway, bringing supplies and goods into New York. Along this stretch there were piers and warehouses, holding grain, furs, and sugar. It proved to be such a fire hazard, that it was demolished. What you see are the old piers that the warehouses sat on.

Gosh, thank you for asking....

What a fabulous shot. We were in New York in February and only had the view of lower Manhattan from the Staten Island ferry, which has very dirty plastic un-opening windows and the tour boats where everything is always moving.

Really good having both dramatic foreground and impressive backdrop.

Hey Carol, WOW is certainly the word for this shot.
You've really made that K50 Sing !
That was quite a long exposure for a daytime shot - what lens did you use ?

Best regards
Peter

A marvellous city-scape. I love the way the pilings mirror the skyscrapers, Carol.
Best wishes,

Andrew
