I was on the upper roadway of the 59th Street bridge when I took the funky shots, I was pretty much at a stop or so I thought, I wonder if by inching forward a little bit, did my cellphone compensate and give me that pretty sky? I love the sky’s color, it is a mixture of dark blue, red and maybe some pinks, I’m not sure but I love the effect.
I was thrown back in time while driving over the bridge, I used to take the bridge when I was in my early twenties to go hang out with my buddy Phil downtown at Astor Place, smoking a cigarette with the windows open, listening to Simon and Garfunkel or Simply Red or Tracy Chapman, good times.
The constant between tonight and over twenty years ago is the gorgeous New York City skyline, I find that comforting.
