A couple of blocks from Borough Hall in Brooklyn is the old entrance to the Court Street Station. No longer a working station it now serves as the MTA Transit Museum. If New York history is your thing then this museum is a must. It tells the story of how the subway system changed the entire make up of Manhattan and New York City.
It’s hard to believe how many pictures I have taken of New York City since I started the weblicist last August, 2006. I had just moved back from a two year stint in Chicago. The first weekend back my wife planned a trip to see our friends in Washington DC. I could not bear the thought of going away the day I returned so I begged out, dropped my family at Penn Station and then headed down to the Lower Westside with my camera. I came across a couple of flea markets packed with people and started taking pictures.

I am not sure what you mean by HDR?

those are hot train pics was that digitaly done?
I added a little saturation to the pictures. The light was really low and I didn’t have a tripod so I had to be very still. I like the effect though.
