I tried to catch this year’s Manhattanhenge after having pretty good success last July. However, on Tuesday night, there was a big storm that obscured the entire sun, making it impossible to get any good photos.

The sky was a lot clearer on Wednesday, but trying to get photos from Long Island City proved difficult. There was a large cloud cover that obscured the sun it approached the horizon. I was pretty disappointed, as was Frank who accompanied me for the trip this time. Maybe we’ll have better luck in July.

I was impressed by the popularity of the event. Manhattanhenge in Long Island City had a fair amount of fans watching, including a bunch of photographers and a bunch of kayakers who watched the sunset from the East River.
