I am planning to take brooklyn bridge pictures and not sure about the best shooting spot to stand and picture the bridge.
Anyone knows the best location to picture the Brooklyn Bridge?

On either side you can move from street to street to get differing POV,effects of lighting,foreground and background components,etc.. You of course can shoot from the bridge itself,as you walk from one side to the other. It is an inspiring object and many great shots have been taken by some of the best in the world. Enjoy yourself,take as many shots as you can,daytime,nighttime,rain or shine enjoy!Steve B.  HOSTED PHOTO please log in to view hosted photos in full size.

This is the Manhattan Bridge taken from there.  ALAN

...then walk back up and walk OVER the bridge back into Manhattan. people will always try to stop you doing the right thing if it is unconventional
