f/9 @ 30 seconds, 100 ISO on the last one. I use the Firefox EXIF viewer (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3905) - adds EXIF to the right-click properties menu.
StopSweatinMe - great work. All of these shots look fantastic. Did you bring out the blue sky in the most recent shot during post, or capture it in camera? The sky above NYC in all my shots usually comes out brown...

Wowsers.
Can someone give me a quick run down how to do this?
Rebel XTi - Kit Lens or 50mm?
What setting to use and what to set it to? I am guessing Tv and run the shutter speed down to something around 10-15 seconds?
VERY VERY nice!

I shoot fully manual, and anywhere from 5 second to 30 second exposures. Depends on the exact situation.

The Brooklyn Heights promenade is a little to the south from where that shot was taken, which would be to the left.. also, the promenade is above the BQE, so it has a higher vantage point.

I thinking croping out the white item on the top and the black item on the right of the first shop would really clean it up...love the shots
