If you look really closely far down the bridge, under the bright light flare, you'll see our own Michael Elliott! The photographers (didn't know the front one) are using two of the three holes in the fence. This is a context shot for the views from Manhattan Bridge that Michael, Junko, and I have posted.
@mcsiegle Holes in the 'fence' -- they'd been cut so that a lens could fit through. Quite mysterious (I'd described them in the photo in my extras album - http://365project.org/taffy/the-also-ran-ph/2015-10-13 - and photographers can use them to get shots without the fence in the way.
Great capture! Good to see "how" you got a shot! I can see you must have had great fun sticking your lenses through those convenient holes! So lucky Michael knew about them!
Amazing what we photographers will do for a shot. I saw these holes in the fencing around Prague too, very convenient for subsequent photographers to use!
