New York Harbor Cruise

Thunderstorms were out in the distance

When it opened in 1964, the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge was the world's longest suspension span.

Last Saturday Evening, I was fortunate enough to cruise from Atlantic Highlands, NJ to New York City. I apologize for some of the grainy pictures. Consumption of adult beverages, the fog, darkness, and being on the water all contributed to make challenging photography.

SilkeHoltmann What a wonderful set!
Sometimes, when I win the jackpot of the lottery, I will visit the U.S.!!
Then I`ll take a look for you at the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge !

OC110481 LOL (I apologize for some of the grainy pictures. Consumption of adult beverages....)
Well you are really lucky, and I really enjoy thos shot, even some were blurry but it still can show that how much it is beautiful.
I love them all, but most impressive me is that last one. I really dream to see statue of liberty that close and in boat, like that!
