Angles

  • South‑southwest orientations reveal Liberty and ship lines.
  • Watch ferries for dynamic foregrounds and timing cues.

Timing

  • Late afternoon through blue hour gives warm light on the harbor.
  • Night simplifies the scene into beacons and paths of light.

Tip: A slightly higher stance can reduce interior reflections in your frame.
