Sunset as seen from battery Park
Posted by JJ (Jersey City, United States) on 24 February 2009 in Landscape & Rural.
Popped by Battery park one evening on the way home and caught this sunset
Thank you for taking the time to visit. I really appreciate all your comments, and welcome any critique as I am learning the art of photography, and having a blast with it
Getting ready for a work trip from the 29th so may not be able to check all your posts but will do as and when I can

beautiful colours I can't wait to see how Kaha and Bahbahra get on together (might be a bit of rivalry there hehe)

@jamesy: Thanks Jamesy
Yes will be interesting to see how Kaha and bahbahra interact, seems they both like hogging the spotlight

Wonderful work as always JJ. Seems you're on your way to work at sunrise and on your way home at sunset. I hope you find some time to enjoy daylight on the weekends.

@Chris Parr: Thanks Chris,
This is the best time of year light wise for me, in Winter I leave home while its still dark, and its dark when i leave the office, in the height of summer sunrises well before I leve for work, and I am home well before sunset, so trying to make the most of this short window where I can see both :)

I am so unobservant .. I never saw the statue explanation. Look cold... think I'll pack my big coat.

Beautiful, calming sunset, makes me want to kick back with a beer and watch it (if I didn't know it was so cold). Would make a really moody B&W too.

My goodness, look at all these flippin' comments? What's left to say? I feel like a cog on an enormous photographic gear :)
Not my favorite shot of yours anyway ... these things always bug me when I try them. It's not easy to shoot into that type of light, but I keep plugging as I suspect you will.
