Brooklyn Bridge - 9/11 Memorial Lights
Made by DiGitALGoLD
Brooklyn Bridge - 9/11 Memorial LIghts ***Dedicated to the almost 3,000 victims... We will never forget! Hello Everyone! Last night I walked from my apartment all the way to Brooklyn to pay my respect to all of the victims of the 9/11 Terrorist Attacks. While walking the bridge I had parallel memories of all the people fleeing Manhattan during the day of the attacks. Here is one image I captured just after sunset right after the lights became visible. As the evening progressed, the lights appeared stronger and stronger. Camera Data for this shot: Camera: Nikon D3 Lens: Nikon 24-70mm f/2.8 F Stop: f/5.6 9 Exposure HDR / HDI ISO: 200 Post Processing for this shot: Imported each of the 9 exposures as layers in Photoshop and manually blended through the use of layer masks. More Wiki knowledge about the lights: After some consideration it was decided to contact lighting experts in the field of high intensity light displays. A Las Vegas company was chosen to help design the installation and to supply the 88 fixtures that would be needed. The project was originally going to be named Towers of Light, but the victims' families felt that the name emphasized the buildings destroyed instead of the people killed. On clear nights, the lights could be seen from over 60 miles away, visible in all of New York City and most of suburban Northern New Jersey and Long Island, Fairfield, Connecticut, Westchester County and Rockland County, New York. The beams were clearly visible from the terrace at Century Country Club in Purchase, New York, from at least as far west as western Morris County, in Flanders, New Jersey, and as far south near Trenton, New Jersey in nearby Hamilton. Since 2008, the generators that power Tribute in Light have been fueled with biodiesel made from recycled cooking oil
Two Bridges
Made by Mick Canon
The most important reason I wanted to come down to Dumbo or Empire Ferry State Park is to take this long exposure shot of the two bridges with the rocks in the water. It's not an original shot. I've seen many other photographer's and even my flickr friends take this shot. I've learned from them. I.....just.......wanted....my......own.....shot of it. I wanted to do my own version. Funny thing happened when I got down to Dumbo. I searched and searched for those rocks you see in the water. You can't tell from this photo, but those rock are not so big. They are about the size of my fist. I walked by them over and over again. Maybe that's how the park got the name Dumbo. Because that's how I felt. Like Dumbo. Maybe the full moon made the tides high and kept most of the rocks submerged in the water which made them appear smaller. Well, I finally figured it out that I had to use a wide angle lens and put my camera only a few inches away from the water and those rocks which made them appear larger. And yes, my camera did get a little wet. And so far its working fine. And here it is in HDR with a some splash of color. Have a great weekend everyone.

Please do not post large images/banners or invitations to award groups. ****************************************************************** A shot of the Manhattan skyline at night. If you follow my photostream, then you know I generally prefer full blown colors rather than muted colors or monotone....but I wanted to create a more dark mood here, so I desaturated the photo completely, played with the curves and levels in lightroom, then added about 20% of the saturation back to the photo...just to get a bit of blue-grey in the sky and water. Gotta do something different every now and then! Canon EOS 60D Canon EF-S 15-85mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM 30 second exposure f/14 ISO 100 20mm Single RAW image edited in Lightroom
Manhattan and eastbound traffic from The Brooklyn Bridge
Made by Richard-
New York, New York. and I decided we wanted to work a bit on capturing moving cars while at the same time getting a stable context for them to be moving in. Neither of us had done shots like this before so it took us a while to work through how to do it. She finally figured it out and I followed her lead. We spend over an hour with these shots until I realized that the last train out of Grand Central that would get us back to where my truck was parked was going to leave in 45 minutes and here we were on the bridge! We ran back across and bumped into some great folks from Spain we'd met on the bridge who were also going to Grand Central. We flagged a cab and made it just in time. Ah, the excitement of New York. Note: I borrowed Mamen's Canon EF 16-35mm f/2.8 L lens for this image. I love that lens and was sorry to give it back to her when she left. It's on my B&H wishlist, among others.
September 11th Tribute
Made by Amy Dunn
9/11/01 was the most harrowing day of my life. I cannot begin to describe the horror or the stench that lingered in the city for weeks to follow. I had nightmares for a solid year. And I currently work in a building where I have full view of the pit. During the ceremony this morning, I overlooked the Manhattan skyline and felt a sense of renewal. While the rest of the city had cloudy skies, a patch of sunlight kissed the World Trade Center. I think it's time for a rebirth of one of the greatest cities in the world and look forward to the new development. Photography: Amy Dunn Assistant: Jon S. New York City, September 11th 2008
Tribute in Light
Made by Barry Yanowitz
Tribute in Light, which is organized by the Municipal Arts Society, has shined into the New York sky every year on September 11th since 2002 and serves as a very powerful memorial to the people who lost their lives on that day in 2001. It has secured funding for this year and next and I hope they can come up with a way to make it a permanent annual memorial. I took this on Tuesday night when they were doing a test run of the lights. I've taken other photos from this spot recently and thought it would be a fitting place to photograph the memorial. Tribute in Light will shine from dusk this evening until dawn tomorrow morning.
Lightning over Manhattan
Made by MattSherman
Camera: Nikon D300S Lens: 10.5 Fisheye f/2.8 Shot at f/22 for 30 seconds. This is 1 shot and not an HDR. I wasn't happy how the fisheye captured this entire shot. I had to crop a few times and remove some of the distortion of the fisheye lens. This shot was actually taken during blue hour, but the storm coming in was pretty rough, right after this shot was taken the sky opened up. This was taken from Empire Fulton Ferry State Park. The bridge you see there is the Manhattan bridge from the Brooklyn side. Thanks for stopping by and any comments and faves. EXPLORED: Oct 1, 2010 #211 Thank you everyone!

Suspension cable network and symmetry of Brooklyn Bridge
Made by IronRodArt - Royce Bair
I shot this night time exposure two years ago while on a trip to New York City with my son Chris. This was taken on the pedestrian walkway, on the Brooklyn Heights side, looking towards the Manhattan side. I love the marvelous engineering of this historic old bridge. (I recommend reading David McCullough's The Great Bridge: The Epic Story of the Building of the Brooklyn Bridge.) Click on image to view LARGER and on black.
Snow Glow
Made by Josh Liba
Click it. Oh Pleeease click it! Last Wednesdays snow was reeDONKulous. As I walked home from work, right after the sun set, the orange soaked tunnels of snow covered trees in Brooklyn Heights was unforgettable. Romantic, even? Of course. Who are we talking about? It was equally interesting in the morning and afternoon! See those pictures here on my Blog! Wasn't AS romantic digging out my car that evening, but hey.
charity auction- sending warmth to japan
Made by cmvoelkel (away)
A print of this image was auctioned to support ongoing recovery efforts in Japan. I am very honored and grateful to announce that gave a very generous $225 donation to the Japanese Red Cross. Thanks so much Günter! The Japanese people need ongoing support as they continue to recover from such a great tragedy. There are still several wonderful auctions going on, you can check them out here. A big thanks to all who bid and all who have given support!
Shooting The Brooklyn Bridge
Made by Dan Love
ISO 1600 | 135mm | f2 | 1/125 I think it's somewhat inevitable that over the next couple of weeks I'm going to end up posting lots of pictures of Geoff taking pictures. There's a candid of somebody else in the comments. I'm so much happier with the 135mm than I was with the 70-200mm. The increased speed and depth of field opportunities easily outweigh the versatility of zoom and IS. The 17-40mm should arrive any day now but otherwise it really is primes all the way for me. Now just to save up for that 85mm f1.2...

202.365 - Brooklyn BLING! (Happy Accident!)
Made by Josh Liba
As I carried my camera in my right hand, walking AWAY from the brooklyn bridge, I stepped up on a curb. The lens was pointed up and behind me from hip level. I heard the shutter snap as I stepped up and gripped my camera. Normally I just erase errant clicks right away, but when I looked at the screen, I had taken a pretty awesome picture! Well, pretty awesome for an accident, anyway. Nikon D90 + Tamron 17-50mm f/2.8 Cropped and made BW in Lightroom.
9/11 Tribute lights | NYC
Made by Diego Tabango
Went out shooting the other evening with a good buddy of mine Dez Santana. We hit up Brooklyn Bridge park to take advantage of some jaw dropping views of the lower Manhattan skyline. I had no idea they were going to display the lights on this evening. We were actually on our way out when we looked behind for a final glance and there they were. My heart goes out to all the families and friends of those who passed away due to the tragic event of 9/11.
Forever Yours
Made by Ryan Brenizer
So we've discussed that flash composites don't have to be hard -- but you can do some cool stuff if you're willing to make them hard, such as multiple strobes on a single, animate subject -- call it scuplting with light. This was done with one speedlight through a Lumiquest Softbox III and three frames. See it big, more photos, and a slideshow from the wedding at the blog!
