the veins of the city

the veins of the city
pretty soon i'll be getting on my first plane, i'll see the veins of my city like they do in space
the last time i visited new york city was back in 2015, and i already posted a view to the east from the top of the one world observatory which is where the old twin towers used to be in downtown manhattan. as i said back then i struggled to get good photographs, which was mainly due to my lack of tripod and the fact i was shooting through glass from a pretty well lit room. my improvised solution was balancing my camera with my bag and clothing, pushing the lens right up to the glass and trying to block the excess light which crept through the gaps between the lens and the window. i then had to play around with the focus and exposure settings to get as sharp a shot as possible. i forget exactly how long i spent up there on the 100th floor, but i know it was daytime when i arrived, and clearly nighttime by the time i left. but i was in a stubborn mood and didn't want to leave until i was satisfied i had taken the best shot i could with these makeshift techniques. to be honest i wasn't certain i'd managed it when i finally descended back to street level, but after some further editing in photoshop i'm pretty happy with the final result.
