Beautiful capture. The place was also photographed by Frederick H. Evans, practically at the same angle of view; e.g., https://monovisions.com/frederick-h-evans-biography-architecture-photographer/

 

Thanks, Apostolos.  Yes, I'm familiar with Evans's images of Wells Cathedral and others.

Bonjour Henri,   I still prefer black and white film (I use almost no colour). The advantages of digital don’t mean much to me. Seeing instant results is not so useful, since what comes out of a cam

From the same roll as earlier. One can even read the small print on the door which is a testament to film methinks and its endless well of details.

Holy Moses!  This is an amazing scene and digitally dodged and burned in an expert fashion.  Bravo!

A wow from me Adam, a striking shot.

Thanks Gary and Steve.  I am a little cold on the image and think it could use a big tilt upward with a 4x5 so that more of the bridge (and underbelly thereof) is visible and less of the water, while maintaining perfect verticals.

And fortunately Marc @MT0227 has a beautiful Linhof 4x5 with all the trimmings for us to use for the execution on this... :)

 

Thoughts?

You'd have to go pretty wide to do that at such close range*. 

If I am going be critical, I agree, there is a little too much foreground and i would like to see a little more of the bridge above.  How much more bridge above depends somewhat on what the sky is doing.

I do like the way you have framed that old slum tenement tower block within the bridge pier and the detail and tonal rendition throughout the image is gorgeous.

*ETA: Just saw that you used a 180mm on 6x9.  You wouldn't need to go very wide on 5x4 in that case!

I appreciate that feedback, Steve.  I totally agree.  You really need at least a normal FL lens in order to get the compression with the Freedom tower and the Manhattan Bridge.  But I am so bored by the extra water in the foreground and would love to see more of the beautiful architectural details in the Bridge.  That's why I was thinking if I used a 4x5 and gave it an upward tilt I could achieve this while keeping the verticals.  Think it's more tricky that I am making it sound?

Have you thought about 6X17 framed up vertically to include all of the water, the reflection, dramatizing the sandwiched view through the bridge girders? One-third is water, and two-thirds is architecture.
