As we departed New York City a few weeks ago the bright blue skies had vanished and clouds of gloom replaced them. We left the city by crossing the George Washington Bridge and headed down the New Jersey side of the river to try and get a few pictures of the New York City skyline. The dreary atmosphere that had invaded made the proud city look like a drab blue brown smear. Fortunately, that’s somewhat advantageous for black and white photography.
