I had an opportunity Tuesday afternoon to take a boat ride around Manhattan, and I was fascinated by the bridges. Here's one shot, encompassing the Brooklyn Bridge in the foreground and the Manhattan Bridge behind it. Applied a little of Dave Cross's painterly magic....

I just may have to try creating a montage of these and the other bridges. If I do that, I'll be back for help!

Cities like that are great to visit, but when it comes to home I prefer a smaller town. Chuck, I love the night photo, great photography.
