I finally made it out to get the view of the skyline that I have been dying to shoot since I moved here. My lack of a tripod has prevented me from doing this at night and it really hasn't been clear enough to get. Fellow Pad Squad and Aztec, Jeff, was also dying to get this view, so we headed out there our first night. Of course, it was cold and rainy and all our pictures came out fuzzy and gray. After the unfortunate outcome of the NIT semifinals game at Madison Square Garden where the Aztecs lost to Baylor, we went back to Empire Fulton-Ferry State Park along with a friend Jeff made on the subway. (Who is Baylor anyway? Has anyone heard of them before last night?) With Jeff's gorillapod that looks like some sort of sex toy, we managed to get some decent shots of the Brooklyn Bridge and the Manhattan Bridge. It was much clearer the second night, I even saw a star or two, but it might have been airplanes. I can't even distinguish between them at this point.
Jeff and his gorillapod will also be in Australia this summer. Sparkling photos of the Sydney skyline to come.

That's a great shot, I'm assuming you shot it? Rubie and I have to plan a trip out there. Maybe she can come to Chicago and then she and I can come visit you!
