JJ's Photoblog
A colorful morning
Posted by JJ (Jersey City, United States) on 27 March 2009 in Cityscape & Urban.
One morning I took my tripod with me to try a longer exposure and here is one I am semi happy with, I liked the colors over the city and the motion of the lights of a water taxi
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

I don't think you are missing any of the colors of the rainbow. This is beautiful. I actually like the little bit of activity introduced by the boat's lights, too.
