New York Cityscape

    Prev Next

    This was a double exposure. I exposed first for the sky and waited until the sun went down and then exposed the city lights for a second exposure. Added to the Cream of the Crop pool as my personal favorite.

    Blogged about going digital here. And my experiences with the Nikon D300s here.

    Finally, in 2010 I took another NYC shot with the D300s.

    António Afonso, horsenbuggy, and 414 other people added this photo to their favorites.
