Vol. 2 No. 27
While Worldwide Photo Walk Officials sought out the problems encountered with the contest deadline, I thought I would share some of my captures. Since I lead the walk, I am not eligible to compete. I will be selecting a local winner who will go on to compete against other photo walk winners worldwide for some great prizes.
So here are a few of my shots...
I will be posting a few images captured by our walk participants that were submitted to our flickr® group later this week.

Vol. 2 No. 19
This Memorial Day weekend we were treated to an adventure with some good friends aboard the Patriyacht. We left the docks in Oakdale Long Island and cruised to Ocean Beach on beautiful Fire Island.
Special thanks to Captain Richie and First Mate Cathy for a wonderful day.

Arriving after 6:00 pm, the sky was filling with clouds with a storm front approaching from the west. This made for an interesting sky.
Offering a fantastic view of Lower Manhattan, from Pier 1 looking north up the East River you can see the Empire State Building framed by the Brooklyn Bridge and to the south there's Governor's Island and the Statue of Liberty in New York Harbour. These first 2 images are examples of HDR photography. Each high dynamic range photograph consists of several different exposures of the same image combined.
This section of the East River is the entranceway from the Harbour and is extremely busy with marine traffic. From the Water Taxi crossing over to the South Street Seaport in Manhattan, to the tugs, pleasure craft and sightseeing cruises, Pier 1 offers a great viewing experience.
This definitely has the makings of a mid-week sunset photo walk. If you're interested, let me know. If you would like more information about the park visit www.brooklynbridgepark.org.
