Manhattanhenge 2024｜Chasing the Perfect NYC Sunset

The magical Manhattanhenge is almost here! This rare phenomenon—when the setting sun aligns perfectly with NYC's street grid—only happens twice a year (around late May & mid-July). With unpredictable weather lately, I revisited my shots from July 14 last year—taken at the iconic Tudor City Bridge—and gave them a fresh edit. 📸✨ 📍 Best Spot: Tudor City Bridge (399-321 E 42nd St) 🌇 Pro Tip: The "window" isn’t just one day—try shooting 1-2 days before/after the peak dates for slightly different effects (full sun vs. half-sunken). Last year, sunset was at 8:20 PM, but I arrived at 4:20 PM to snag a third-row spot—come early for the best views! Why It’s Epic ✅ Surreal Urban Glow: The sun transforms into a blazing orb framed by skyscrapers. ✅ Photographer’s Dream: Golden hour × NYC’s grid = unreal shadows and reflections. 🚦 Fun Fact: Called "Manhattanhenge" as a nod to Stonehenge’s solar alignment! ⚠️ 2024 Predictions: May 28-29 (Full sun) July 12-13 (Half sun) (Check official forecasts for exact timing!) Pack your camera, grab a sidewalk slice 🍕, and join the crowd for this big-city celestial spectacle! Who’s scouting spots this year? 👀 #Manhattanhenge #NYCSunset #UrbanPhotography #NYCViews #CityMagic #OnlyInNYC
