NYC Autumn Photo Spots 🍁 | 30,000 Steps Worth of Views!

This weekend, I walked over 30,000 steps across New York City, hunting for the best fall foliage photo spots 🍂📸. From golden ginkgos to skyline views, here are my top picks — perfect for a final autumn shoot before the season ends! 📍 Hoboken Riverside Park Stumbled upon a stunning grove of ginkgo trees glowing in the soft morning light 🌅. Felt like stepping into a golden sea — absolutely magical for photos! 📍 Pier 25 at Hudson River Park Start from the World Trade Center PATH station and walk north along the Hudson. You’ll find a path lined with fall colors on one side and the water on the other, with the Wall Street skyline ahead 🏙️ — a true New York autumn moment. 📍 911 Memorial Pools Surrounded by uniform oak trees, the memorial takes on a deep, reflective beauty in the fall light. Don’t miss capturing the One World Trade Center framed by fiery leaves 🍂. 📍 Central Park – Easy Photo Loop Perfect for a relaxed shoot: The Pond: Calm water + fall reflections Bow Bridge: Iconique with foliage Sheep Meadow: Blue hour + city glow + night leaves 🌃 A lazy photographer’s dream! 📍 Washington Square Park NYU’s lively backyard 🎒🍂. Street performers, students, and autumn vibes everywhere — one of the city’s most spirited parks. Grab your camera, wear comfy shoes, and catch these views while the leaves still hold their color 🧡. Perfect for a weekend wander or a creative solo date! #NYCPhotography #AutumnInNYC #FallFoliage #NYCSpots #PhotoWalk #CentralPark #NYCLife #TravelPhotography #SeasonalVibes
