    Great video Jay .. thank you. Another good spot in NJ is Hoboken, near or along Frank Sinatra drive. One good thing here too is Hoboken is a transit hub, so easy access via train in NJ, then just a short walk to the waterfront

    I have not been to NYC and I will be in a month's time. Your video is just what I need for photographing the famous Manhattan skyline at night! Thanks for this. As I understand, I have to be in New Jersey to get a good shot. Can you tell me the mode of transport from Manhattan please? Is it safe to be walking around the waterfront with camera? Thanks again for the video and nice photos.

  • @trezegol2007
    @trezegol2007 Рік тому

    Very nice video. You gave a calm and peaceful atmosphere to it that one really felt wanting to be right there taking pictures too. They are all great spots! If one is in New York for a couple of days only, I guess you have to make a decision which ones to choose from. The areas at Weehawken or Dumbo/Brooklyn Park, being closer from downtown Manhattan are they easy to access just walking towards there? They were like my personal favorite spots from your video. :)

    • @JCImagesBehindtheShot
      @JCImagesBehindtheShot  Рік тому +1

      You can walk across the Brooklyn Bridge between Dumbo and Manhattan. Weehawken is tougher to get to. You would need to Uber. (sorry for the delay!)

    Fantastic video! I have a few questions for you. I am thinking of going to Brooklyn on the morning of Sunday, 12/26 to photograph the Manhattan skyline. Do you have any recommendations in regards to parking in the area? Will I be okay just parking on the street in a nearby neighborhood in the pre-dawn hours on a Sunday? Thanks for all your awesome videos!

    • @JCImagesBehindtheShot
      @JCImagesBehindtheShot  2 роки тому +1

      You will probably be able to find a spot at that hour. If you are desperate, there is a parking garage on Adams Street between Front Street and Water Street. Good luck friend!
