a sunset behind the Brooklyn Bridge
So there are a few reasons why this clip is important.
First, it's shot w/ the Canon 5d Mark II in HD quality.
Second, it's my first video.
Third, this was the view I saw going home from Brooklyn Tech HS many years ago. This was the reason I wanted to get into photography.
On this particular day, I had been out all day w/ the camera, and ended up in Brooklyn. On my ride back into the city I saw the sun beginning to set and I didn't have enough time to setup my equipment and capture this moment. I got to the next stop on the Q train, ran across the platform going back into Brooklyn, got on the train set everything up and shot the sun setting. I still had to get back to the city, so the footage you see here is from the final ride back into Manhattan.
Cheers.
Even more cool since photography and video shooting is illegal on the subways. But I've done it too. Haha.
