New-York Sunset in Full Colors

Following the previous post, here are some pics taken at the usual dock with a nice view on Manhattan. I was impressed by the diversity of the color tones of the sky as the sun goes down. There is always a choice to be made regaridng the choice of a white balance. I am not sure there any ideal setting when electric light competes with sun light.

Encore des photos de coucher de soleil à Manhattan. La qualité du ciel ce soir la permet de jouer un peu sur le couleurs. A force de photographier toujours le meme endroit, on finit par comprendre ce qu'on peut et ne peut pas faire dans ces conditions particulière d'éclairage.










Like it ? If not, I'll try again and again. I can't find any better place to snap this kind of pictures. If you re aware of a good spot, please let me know. Last, here is a couple of B&W photos. The first is a view of the neighborhood of the docks, where the pics are snapped, and the second show the same old landscape.


Il me semble que c'est plus convaincant chromatiquement que sur les précédents posts , comme http://gillescharvin.blogspot.com/2006/12/ponts-et-nocturnes.html, non ?

Pour finir, quelques N&B qui montrent les grands immeubles d'habitation en construction près des docks ainsi que la photo panorama habituelle.

Yes,
Those are much more convincing than the previous ones.

Comparison with the former
http://gillescharvin.blogspot.com/2006/11/we-brooklyn.html,
already impressive at that time,
makes it crystal clear the outstanding progress you made taking pictures from this NYC spot. You are entering the mood of the place right now.
