New York City: Shooting It Like a Pro
The Brooklyn Bridge
The early morning light is ideal for shooting the bridge because it illuminates both of its towers and the Manhattan skyline behind it.

Slower shutter speeds won't work, she says, because the bridge quivers too much from the trucks that rumble underneath.
