The Hudson River


The Hudson River is one of America's great rivers. I have always wanted to do a photo essay on it, from its source at Lake Tear of the Clouds, to New York Harbor. It is still on my list of things to do. The Hudson Highlands, in the distance in this photograph, is such a beautiful part of the river to photograph because of the mountains. Of course this photograph is not about that beauty, it is about the Tappan Zee Bridge, GPS units and EZ Pass. This is about being on the road in modern times.

  1. Holy cow! You're driving and taking a picture at the same time? Yikes! Nice composition, though. But warn us when you're going on the road again, will ya?

  3. The camera is a Cannon SD-800 point and shoot, that focuses by itself, and I am not looking through a viewfinder... Should I add that I fly a plane and do aerial photos at the same time? gulp!
