New York City at Night

I was super excited to be leaving on the cruise out of NYC.  Mostly because I wanted to get some great skyline shots as we cruised out.  New York has a great skyline with the Empire State Building and the Chrysler Building, along with One World Trade Center Tower.  There was one little problem with this: I forgot how early the sun sets in the winter!  We were scheduled to leave at 4pm and we left late.  The sun set before we left.  I was not prepared with a tripod so I did the best I could with what I had.  I think we got some great shots.  Here are a few of my favorites:

I was in the right place at the right time for this one.  A helicopter just flew on by!Many Waters NYC Helicopter

It was really cold out.  There weren’t many people out on the top decks at all.  I think they were in the covered part of the ship partying.  The pictures were well worth it.

You can’t take NYC photos without getting a few of the lady.  We have about a hundred, most of them blurry.  I was happy we got a couple of good ones!  I really like the American flag in the second one.
