Manhattan Photos

OK, so here are some photos from our half-day trip to New York. I couldn't lug my Nikon around, so these are just from a little Canon. We did surprisingly well, ticking off several tourist spots, and my memory performed much better than I thought it would. Spot the locations:

I've been up the Empire State Building a number of times, but this time dusk was falling and the light was superb. I didn't have the kit to take real advantage of it though. The view over the Hudson River and New Jersey.

The view South looks quite different now. We walked around the World Trade Centre Memorial site later on, when dark. Strange feelings.

Gareth's looking for Macy's. Clue: look down.

I always have to take people to Brooklyn Bridge. It's a great viewpoint, and it's free! Everyone loves that classic skyline view.

The view from the Empire state building seems still chilling to me. I don't think I will ever get used to the new skyline of Manhattan.
