NYC by Air
An ongoing project of mine has been to capture New York’s beauty by drone at various “magic” hours. I finally have a collection of some favorites to share. Moonrise, moonset, golden hour, and night are all represented. Enjoy!

My ongoing love affair with photographing the city at night continues. These are some of my favorite recent shots, particularly with the cloud cover and variety of dazzling lights on the skyline.
It's an odd title, I know- but the pinkish hue of the clouds and fog on overcast mornings reminds me of a strawberry milkshake! I love that the colors at this time of day are subtle but still so punchy and bold in the context of the image. The tints of the sky in mornings and evenings are so unique they're unmistakable.
It took me more than a year to put this series together. Shooting the moon in relation to the skyline requires patience- you have to wait until it's positioned where you want it in the sky, and then hope the weather cooperates. Any combination of clouds, fog or ambient light pollution can ruin the shot. Then you have to wait for the moon to return to the same place in the sky and keep your fingers crossed for better weather. But when it all works out, the results are magical. Take a look at the previous series.
