On my travels to USA and Canada, I took this shot of Brooklyn Bridge and Manhattan cityscape in the background. The sky has been filtered to give a more slightly dramatic effect. This shot was taken on September 28th 2006.
Hope you enjoy.

Excellent sky Tony. The image is very sharp and detailed.
Looks like a busy spot.

Indeed it was very busy, very difficult to cross any road in New York.

Tony, my town and my bridge. Love that place. There is a little cheesecake shop off Decalb Ave. that makes the best strawberry short cake and NY style cheesecake. Oh, I'm really at it today. :)

Great shot. Love the clouds, whatever you did to them, but the bridge is one of my favorite places to shoot. Too bad I don't live that close now and I go on the Verazano to get home.

From an office tower block, through the top floor window.

If I only knew that Suzie, I'm quite partial to cheesecake, however I did try the Philly Sandwich while in NY and that was heavenly. :D

Photographs are records of life. Pity they don't make music when you put them in a record player. :p

That's lovely Tony, from the composition and colours to the fact that there is so much detail to keep you going back to the photo to discover a little bit more.

So can anyone just stroll up to the top floor window of this office tower?

I just thought that I would post again to let you know that I've came back to appreciate your photo once more. As this is something I don't often do with threads, I thought that I would recompliment you on such a nice photo.
