I went to Brooklyn Bridge Park to get the waterfalls this evening. Quite a disappointment, but pictures anyway:

get a boat, do it from the water :lol: :lol:
Actually, I think it's placed so you can get a good view from the South Street Seaport area.Quote:

My deity...IKEA in Brooklyn is probably spending more money to get people in the store then they are actually making selling furniture...the buses have completely infested Park Slope...Quote:

It's really a joke. My girlfriend says it's like the end of a water park slide. Some of the photographers I've met while attempting to get pics had traveled long distances to see them, and had some much less repeatable opinions. :)Quote:

Also, that looks like about as much water as a fire hydrant with one of those sprinkler caps on it.
If I happen to venture downtown for some reason this summer I'll check them out but otherwise I'm not going out of my way to see them.
Got a better shot...

Your photo of the bridge is stunning, looks like it was taken around 30-45 mins after sunset and is exactly the same shot i wanted to take when i came to New York on 21 Oct 2003, but by the time we got to East River (9-10pm) the sky was pitch black so my photos never turned out to be that good.
Oh well never mind............. still had a brilliant time in New York :)
What location did you take it from ?
