"Verrazano Meets Wadsworth"

"Verrazano Meets Wadsworth"

Fort Wadsworth, Staten Island - November 6, 2010.  I had been wanting to visit Wadsworth to get shots that specifically included the old fort with the Verrazano Bridge in the same shot.  This is one of about 4 or 5 that will be included in "The City Project" for various usage.  This photo channels a famous photo taken by Berenice AbbottBrooklyn Bridge shot in 1936. 

Oddly enough, many of my images reflect Abbott's style and we also share the same birthday (she's a little older...).
