I captured this photograph of the stunning New York City skyline at night. The image showcases the illustrious One World Trade Center prominently. This building, also known as the Freedom Tower, is a symbol of resilience, having been completed in 2013 following the rebuilding after the September 11 attacks. The lighting setup is ideal for nighttime photography, enhancing the contrast between the illuminated skyscrapers and the deep blue evening sky. The composition includes the calm Hudson River in the foreground, creating a reflection of the city's lights that adds depth to the scene. The stars scattered across the sky add a serene ambiance. I took care to position myself at a vantage point offering an unobstructed view of Manhattan's architectural marvels, ensuring the lines and shapes of the buildings are sharp and detailed. Although I couldn’t gather any specific EXIF data, the clarity suggests use of a steady hand or tripod to capture this long-exposure shot. The city’s pulse is felt through this image, visible in the lit windows and distant movement of boats on the river. This photo is a personal testament to the dynamic and ever-evolving character of New York, balanced with the tranquility of its nighttime view.
