It's a beautiful shot - did you use a tripod? I have trouble with blur on the longer-exposure shots.
Also, as per past critiques you can crop this one a bit better, or photoshop out the ledge in the top left corner - it's distracting. Still, a fantaastic job with the angle of the steeple and the beams of light. Nice work!
I see a pic of a church on a frum blog and I think to myself: what am I supposed to think?
Beautiful shot, though it's interesting to see a frum blogger make it look like things are rising up from a church... :P
Makes the church look very holy.
Rejewvenator,
No, there was no tripod involved. As it is, I had to lay down on the sidewalk on Broadway (across the street) to get the picture. Considering the exposure is 3/10, I *was* lucky to get the shot as clearly as I did.
Other people have recommended that I get rid of the ledge as well. I may yet do so in the future, but for now I like it.
Anon,
You're supposed to think it's a very nice picture visually, regardless of the subject.
Ezzie,
The shot actually wasn't planned. I spent about an hour shooting down in Battery Park (where the lights actually were). After that, I started walking up Broadway (to eventually walk over the Brooklyn Bridge) and as I passed the church, I realized that the combination of the lit up church at night and the ligths would make a nice shot.

Great shot - though looks like a little too much sharpening in post-processing, if you ask me.
very cool, I've never seen those blue lights before and I always wanted to, so thanx for sharing the picture. But are you allowed to take a picture of a church?
may we win this election
It's a beautiful memorial -- simple, powerful, moving. Thanks for giving us the chance to see it from afar.
