Strolling the Brooklyn Bridge

New York City's photography super store  B&H Photo conducted an organized "photo shoot" on the Brooklyn Bridge.  Seven "way points" were set up so photographers could take advantage of unique opportunities to interact with special guest photographers, models, props and the spectacular views.
Several hundred people took part and Connie and John were there too!


Take a look at some of Connie's and John's photos of that afternoon.

The Worthworth Bldg (1913),  57 stories tall.

The new Beekman Tower will be the tallest residential building in the Western Hemisphere after Chicago's Trump Tower. Frank Gehry is the architect of the new building. It is being built on the parking lot of Beekman Downtown Hospital.
