Default Brooklyn Bridge
I was looking through my old images of the Brooklyn Bridge and edited these two.

That first one is a real winner!!! Amazingly beautiful!! What is that "spilling" behind the bridge?? Water or light?

It is a waterfall. It was part of the waterfall project. They set up four waterfalls along the river. If you look in the background you can see one of the other ones.

Thanks

Frank

I'm glad you dug these up! The last time I was in New York was 1989; No waterfalls then.
These shots are Prize winners Sparkie! They could be in New Yorker Magazine!
Thanks for Sharing these
Michael

I am totally in love with the first shot! Wow! Nice clarity and I can't wait to learn how to take evening pictures like that. Thank you for sharing!

When I see photos of the Brooklyn Bridge, I always think of that scene from "Saturday Night Fever" where John Travolta tears up at the sight of the bridge. It must have a strong emotional appeal to people living nearby. The way you have photographed "her" makes me think she is a favorite subject. Your photos are quite wonderful.

As we say in Trinidad "jeezan ages" that nice man. Really nice photos. I love bridges and night shots and these are really fantastic. Hopefully some day I'll be able to do similar ones.
