New York City Skyline, Lower Manhattan over Hudson River from Jersey City with Rocky Shore and Long Exposure Water Blur

I had a 3 hour window last Friday afternoon to shoot the New York skyline from the Jersey shore. I met up with an acquaintance from Instagram that lives in the Jersey City area. The clouds were looking super promising, both in the sky and in the forecast. By the time I got down there though, the clouds disappeared. The water was really choppy so I pushed this one out really far to smooth it.
