Liberty & Freedom
A side of the Statue of Liberty you don't often see, from the New Jersey cruise terminal. Waiting for a cruise ship to leave, I got this shot of the Statue along with the new Freedom Tower on the site of the old World Trade Center, straining to get up to it's full height of 1,776 feet.

A New View of Liberty
We saw this view of the Statue of Liberty a few years ago when we sailed out of New York harbor on a cruise.
What's really cool is, we'll be seeing it again soon, for the very same reason.
The neat thing about this shot for me, though, is the strong backlighting, causing the statue itself to be solely a shadow. It was, obviously, a gorgeous sunset over Jersey.
There's one more angle of the statue I want to take some day. I'm not going to spoil it by saying what it is, though.
