I also explored Manhattan just a bit and did a few tourist things. It was nice since this was my first visit to New York City and I finally had the photography skills to capture life in New York even though it was only for a few hours. I took 800 shots and uploaded just over 70. As my friend Jason noted, I must have been running around like a mad man to get so many shots in 4 hours. He&#8217;s right. It was worth it though. Photography drives me to explore places and I enjoyed my day in NYC. It would be nice to go back for a 3 day weekend and truly explore the less touristy areas. Here are my favorite photos from a day in New York.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a title=\"Feeling Yellow by adamjackson1984, on Flickr\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/adamjackson\/5464775647\/\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/farm6.static.flickr.com\/5294\/5464775647_ed45156d40_z.jpg?resize=640%2C427&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Feeling Yellow\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Taxis in NYC - I was standing in the middle of the road for this one and may have almost been run over.
