Patience pays off



While riding my bike home from work tonight, I noticed there was going to be the possibility a stunning sunset photo op based on the cloud structure that was over Manhattan. I stopped at this location as I have many times, because I knew this would present a fantastic image. I waited about 45 min for the sun to set and the shot just kept getting better and better as the mins passed. This really was a combination of luck, patience and being observant.

Of note, only the contrast was very slightly boosted. I didn't touch any saturation settings nor used any color enhancing filters. This is pretty much a situation of what you see is what you get. God's paintbrush was definitely active tonight.

Location:Astoria, NY
