I have so many photos of NYC from the Top of the Rock that it’s fun to pick one here and there and go crazy with Photoshop just to see what happens. I’m still learning more and more techniques so I’m getting a lot faster with it. Unfortunately, when I was in New York, I didn’t do a ton of photography since so much of my time there was spent figuring out how to get from one point to the next.
And this is complicated for someone who’s never been to New York before. The place is a mess. Nobody knows anything, and the subway system can get very confusing. You’ll be in the station to go on the green line or something, but where you are doesn’t go north. Only south. How do you go north? You have to leave the subway, cross the street, and go down on a different side. And there is no signage or anything telling you that. You just have to know. To top it all off, the GPS in my photo gets confused by all the tall buildings. So it cannot be trusted.
The Sony A7R
In other news. I’ve pre-ordered the Sony A7r with the Zeiss 35mm F2.8 FE lens. I’m pretty excited by this camera. It will be nice to have 36 megapixels and a bit more color information to work with. The Canon 5Dmkii is just so primitive nowadays. It still takes great photos, but it doesn’t have a very sharp sensor and pretty bad color depth compared to that D800E sensor that’s in the Sony A7r. It will be a much-welcomed update.
