I'm not big on light pollution. I think we could do a lot to minimize it in general.

But having said that, I think the lights memorial is pretty cool.

Funny you should mention that. I wanted to snap this photo quickly because there most definitely would have been a bright parking lot light in that photo. For some reason it was late to turn on. Glad I caught the shot when I did.

It's a really good shot. If the quality is good enough check out getting a print made on metal.

Thank you so much!

It’s just one day a year, and fighting light pollution in NYC is like trying to drain the ocean with a mop and bucket.
