NY Waterways Ferry

previous / next (8-7-09)

This was shot the same day as the previous post but from Hoboken...yes we do spend a lot of time in Hoboken. I've become very fond of that city since I've been photographing there over the past couple of years. I was shooting in the opposite direction when I heard the Ferry behind me so I quickly turned around and grabbed the shot as the Ferry started to turn toward NY. It was such a lovely evening with wonderful golden light.

This was 100% processed in Lightroom...no HDR...I don't have a clue how to do HDR. No add on filters or plug-ins only Lightroom's default tools.

Nikon D700
Nikkor 28-70mm f/2.8
1/125 second
F/9.0
ISO 400
28 mm

There is a lot of stuff going on right now and I am so very busy. I have some very hopeful exciting news and I am wanting to share it but cannot...just yet. It is of a personal nature not related to photography but it is something I've been waiting for for a long time and if you have been following me for a while you will understand why I am excited about it. I should know by the end of the week if it will happen. I'm requesting positive thoughts in the meantime.

Excellent composition. I like the colors of the sky and the skyline in the background.

This is very, very good. The motion of the boat and space in front leads to the skyline and the clouds at upper left force the viewer to keep going back in that direction too. Great colors and composition all the way around.

Wow..what a great travel photo! Isn't it nice to have wide angle back at only 28mm?
