Night and Day

Four photos of midtown Manhattan shot from the same balcony at different times: two photos during the day in a snowstorm, two photos about fifteen minutes after sunset.

I might add that at both times it was damn cold. The evening I took the night shots it was around fifteen degrees with at least a thirty mile an hour wind. Couple that with being on a forty fifth floor balcony in the tallest building in the near vicinity and you are guaranteed to be windburned and have snot frozen all over your face. Ah...good times!

All were shot hand held on my D300 with the 16-85 VR DX. I braced myself against the walls/ railings to steady the night shots.
