Night Photography (non-aviation)

[Zee71]

Got a chance to take a couple of night shots of the city skyline and the 59th Street bridge during a recent family event. I did use a tripod, but the winds were too much that evening to really keep the tripod from shaking. Hope you like them.

Yeah.........taken from the roof top bar of the Ravel hotel in Long Island City. Taken with the Nikon D700 + 28-70mm f/2.8 lens at ISO 200 and about a 5 sec exposure.
