Empire Theatre on 42nd St. Nice to know it is still there. Seen many old movies there.

Location
I captured this photo while walking around Times Square at nighttime, enjoying the city life. I loved the colors of the lights on the buildings so I took a quick shot. I didn’t realize until afterwards that the bus I had originally wished wasn’t in the way, actually helped make the photo pop!Time
This photo was taken on Sunday September 4, 2022 at 8:48 pm. Which is actually pretty early for New York City nightlife but the streets were already bustling with tourists and filled with lights, music, and traffic!Lighting
This was the natural lighting of the city. Everywhere I walked there were bright lights and colors everywhere. Colors are my inspiration for my photography. When my eyes caught the beautiful collage of pinks and reds I knew I had to capture it!Equipment
This photo was captured with my iPhone 13 Pro using my wide camera lense in vibrant night mode. No other equipment was used.Inspiration
I was inspired by the unique collage of pinks, reds, and yellows and how the architecture just jumped out at you. The bus just happened to pull up as I took the shot and pulled the entire piece together perfectly.Editing
I did some minor post editing in Lightroom to crop and accentuate the vibrant colors.In my camera bag
My iPhone is all I need!Feedback
New York is so busy the scenery changes by the second. I had my camera ready and eyes peeled at all times so when something caught my eye I could be quick with the draw and shoot.
