Brooklyn

Although it's a classic New York shot, this location still retains a neighborhood charm that can only be found in Brooklyn. It's a perfectly framed photo, along a quiet street lined by lush trees, local shops, restaurants and residential buildings. If you're lucky, you'll be able to capture this image in the morning when the flock of tourists haven't yet crowded the scene — a rarity, but definitely worth the early wake up call!

This image is of the Manhattan Bridge, photographed from Washington Street in the Dumbo area of Brooklyn. I stood in the middle of the street (please be cautious of traffic) and then faced northwest toward the bridge. To get to the exact location of where I stood, reference the GPS coordinates. The easiest way to get to this spot is by taking public transportation. By Subway: - Closest station: York St (via F Line) - Head north on Jay St toward York St - Turn left onto York St - Turn right onto Washington St
