Brooklyn Wandering

Made my way over to Brooklyn to scope out some potential night shot locations from the pier parks.  I've seen a lot of photos of Downtown from this side of the East River.  I know a few of the locations already, but some others I have not been able to track down.

Started off in Downtown, then made my way from the PATH over to to the F train. It was such a nice day out. Purposefully left the headphones off.

It was nice seeing so many people using the public grills along the river. Walking up and down the piers, I didn't end up finding the location I was looking for, so I made my way back to the Carroll Gardens area. I'll have to do some more Google Maps research before heading out there again. In my typical can't make up my mind mindset, I set out with an idea for night shots, but end up going out there too early and burning myself out walking around. One day I will actually make a plan and stick to it.

Had a friend who used to live in this area and ended up stopping by Wingbar to grab an unhealthy snack.  Wings are still great here, and the dive bar atmosphere was comforting. I can't remember the last time I've had wings. I love this place, and wish there were more like it where I live. Save it to your Google Maps and stop by if you're ever in the area.

Nice video on leaving your comfort zone and trying something new.
