Summary

[edit]
Description

This is a composite “day into night” scene from the Tudor City Overpass, a bridge over 42nd Street looking West through Midtown Manhattan. This digital art is a combination of 50 or so individual photos taken from about an hour before sunset to about 45 minutes after sunset.

The daytime area is in the foreground. For example, each taxi is its own Photoshop layer from its own individual photo. As you look in the distance down 42nd Street to the Chrysler Building, the time passes from day into night. The Chrysler Building layer was taken from my prior blue hour Flickr photo.

I was on the bridge for 2 hours and took 800 photos from the same spot on a tripod. I then spent about 40 hours sorting through the photos and combining them as layers in Photoshop. I recommend others go in with a good plan before undertaking a project like this!

Stephen Wilkes, a professional photographer, has several excellent NYC scenes like this on his website.
