Topic: Greetings from beautiful Jersey City!

[Frank in JC]

Another greeting from JC, this one from a parade of motorcycle riders that lasted over 10 minutes.  It was part of a 9/11 responders benefit than ran though a state park directly across from the Statue of Liberty.  It was a total surprise to me... I've never seen so many bikes on the road.

The RAF's Red Arrows performed in NYC on Wednesday (the actual show was in Staten Island).  I was waiting in Jersey City, opposite Ellis Island to get the fly-by.  This is one of nine jets in the formation.  I had to give the 400mm Tokina back to my father, so this is a new toy, a Sigma 300 f/2.8 with a 2x TC.  (The Nikon version is WAY too expensive, not to mention sold-out.)

Have a great weekend, everybody.

Hadn't checked this thread in a while. Some nice new shots posted. Your NYC skyline/reflection is one of a series of pics I rotate as my desktop and since I use Linux, there are no icons superimposed on the shot. Keep posting please.
