Missed Oppurtunities

I took this shot Pier A in Hoboken during the blue hour. I had actually gone there to take some shots of Hoboken terminal in all its nighttime glory. From Pier-A you could see the terminal, the tower and the ferry terminal with Erie Lackawanna written on it. But to my disappointment the “C” and “K” of LACKAWANNA was not lit up.

 

With the terminal not in it full glory I decided to take a panorama of NYC skyline. Pier-A has a panoramic view of Manhattan from George Washington Bridge to Lower Manhattan.

 

This was the first pic I clicked to start with, and then the most amazing thing happened. I saw moon rising behind the skyline. It was Supermoon day today, it was bigger and brighter and awesomer. But I actually struggled to take a good photograph which included moon and midtown skyline and expose both of them properly. In excitement I messed up all the photographs and missed once in a lifetime opportunity to capture Supermoon with NYC skyline.

 

In a day of disappointments this was the only good shot I got
