    New York City..... One night....and part 2

    My boys are in Florida and some of my good friends did not want me all alone.... Thinking that I am going to be up to no good, John Klos and Steve decided to keep me busy for an overnighter in NYC....ON DIFFERENT DAYS!!!





    This trip was the first of 2 weeks of my New York overnights and included such topics as.....

    "THE HERO"
    AC
    Lightning
    B!tch cop
    "Burgerking is Closed"
    "Did you see anyone come out of that subway?" -NYPD
    "Stop!....their having sex"
    "F*** Y** Steve!"
    "We need an overhang"
    WET
    REALLY WET
    REALLY F****N WET
    "I love being by Colledge"
    "I think it is the rear wheel"
    Look, an unattended bag on the Brooklyn Bridge
    I am still wet



    Just a few pictures of this epic night
































    The three most common expressions in aviation are, "Why is it doing that?", "Where are we?" and "Oh Crap".

    That was quite an adventure, a lot of laughs and some really interesting nightlife.

    Also, I ate one of the best hero's I ever had!

    Got a chance to try out my new fisheye lens.

    Times Square






    Rockefeller Center


    NYC Public Library


    Washington Square Park


    Not sure what this building is, but I liked it:


    Zucotti Park - Nice and quiet now






    Brooklyn Bridge










    And a lightning shot


    It was fun hanging out with you guys!

    Agreed.....

    Here are a few of the shots I have gotten a chance to work on between going back to work and trying to catch up on the 41 hours of sleep I went without saturday into sunday....

    Definitely worth getting wet for...










    More to come when I can actually keep my eyes open when I get home from work...

    Fred you mentioned thinking about doing this again possibly next month.......Im up for taking another whack at it. Next time however, I'm bringing a poncho and plastic bag to put over the camera when we get caught in a downpour. How do I know we'll get caught in a downpour you ask? I'll be there....it's gonna rain at least once. Hahaha!

    Oh and you forgot another topic from Sat/Sun...."Scaffolding"

    Great shots everyone!
