Brooklyn Tower

Here's the Brooklyn-side (eastern) tower of the Brooklyn Bridge. looking up through the spider web of cables and stays designed and built over 100 years ago.

Live United!

Our Meetup.com gang was on the bridge during our recent trip to NYC, ready to head back to Manhattan, when we suddenly found ourselves swimming against a happy tide.

This throng is part of the kickup of this year's NYC United Way campaign.

Manhattan Meetup

Our meetup.com group had a great trip to Manhattan this past Saturday. Our bus dropped us off on East Broadway, just under the Manhattan Bridge, and from there, we walked to Foley Square, then traversed the Brooklyn Bridge. After some more shooting at South Street Seaport, we subwayed up to West 86th Street and entered Central Park, walking all the way down to Grand Army Plaza.

Also, click on the image above to check out my latest attempt at panoramas, this one stiched together from five photos to produce a 44MP final result. There's a bit of a glitch right of center - I didn't allow for enough overlap.
