The world stops spinning on its axis

 

as the city's lights search through the night

 

for hearts that flutter to the

 

syncopation of its pulsating lights.

This was taken on a stormy night in Brooklyn as the waves in the East

River pounded the piers and the wind whipped against the faces of the

few brave souls who were still standing at the edge of Brooklyn Bridge

Park hoping to catch a first glimpse of the city's lights as they

flickered into view.

 

I am always amazed at the power of long exposure

photography to calm the chaos in a landscape, especially in a cityscape.
