Great photo John. The sky is incredible and I love that you captured so many facets - Statue of Liberty, Industry, Birds, Container Cranes, and the helicopter. Nice work.

Wow. Great job. I've never seem NY look like this; it looks really industrial.

Really great shot! I love the contrast between the container cranes and the Statue of Liberty.

Personally, I might prefer a version whitout the helicopter, because it competes too much with Lady Liberty, but that's just me. :)

An amazing image, terrifically composed, wonderful colours, great shot.

Thanks, all. New York is so vast and has so many nooks and crannies that you could easily spend a year in just a few neighborhoods and never take the same photo twice.

Phil - thanks for the suggestion. I do have such a shot and will try to post it when I get back from this weekend's trip in NYC.

nice capture - different from the usual shots we see of this famous landmark.

John, this is my first visit to your photoblog and I am loving your work. This image is "quiet" but powerful. Having grown up in New York, you must have mastered the perfect time to show up at the bridge. Great job.
