Since this lobby lounge isn't affected by the seasons, it's a great place to photograph all year round.

Well known for its industrial-chic style, the lobby can get very crowded. Showing up early to capture the photo without people can pay off! By visiting in the morning or late afternoon you'll avoid the harsh mid-day light, unless it's an overcast day. Additionally, this soft, natural light blends well with the inner artificial light — giving an intimate feel to your photo.

It's important to make sure the lines are straight in an interior shot, so avoid tilting your camera too low or high.

The large metal lamps hanging from chains are one of the main accent pieces of the lounge. Take your time to experiment with different angles so that the lamps are properly composed in the photo.

If you're patient, you can capture something interesting that happens in the lobby; Take your time.

Explore the rest of the hotel! The location has amazing waterfront views of the Brooklyn Bridge and Manhattan skyline. Watch the sunset at the 1 Rooftop Garden and Bar and then head downstairs for dinner at the Osprey restaurant.
