Another shot of night-time New York – once again, it’s Midtown Manhattan, looking north.  Making this picture was as much about patience and fortitude than anything else – it involved hanging around on a roof thirty-eight storeys up on a windy night, waiting for it to get dark and the city lights to come on, trying to keep my fingers and wits working so I could operate the camera.  I wasn’t actually supposed to be on this roof –  in fact, I had to bluff my way into the building – so “patience and fortitude” were not all I needed to get this shot – but I am glad I made the effort, as the views of Manhattan were great.
