The first time I visited New York was back in 2006 armed with a Canon Rebel XT. I included what I believe to be, the only decent image I captured with that camera. I have learned much since that trip.
The rest were taken in November 2024.
I was fortunate enough to get back in 2025 but I have yet to edit those photos…
2006 - First NY Trip and I thought I knew it all with my Canon EOS Digital Rebel XT shooting in FULL AUTO with a kit lens. Yeah, I was that guy.
