30 Rockefeller Plaza is an Art Deco skyscraper in the middle of Rockefeller Plaza in Manhattan. At 850 feet (260 m) high, the 70-story building is the 14th tallest in New York City and is a great place for capturing views at sunset (especially because it offers views of the Empire State Building).

To get this shot, head to the top of Rockefeller Center, known as "Top of the Rock." The entrance is on W 50th St between 5th and 6th Avenues. Tickets can be purchased on the basement level of building. Be sure to purchase your tickets in advance in order to make your way to the top by sunset (the entry system is timed). Also allot time for a security screening and wait times at the elevator.

Once you arrive at the observation deck take the escalator to the upper levels where your views won't be impeded by the glass windscreens. Tripods are not allowed (although monopods are allowed), but you can rest your camera on the stone barriers of the upper observation deck. Additionally you can use a table-top tripod for stability.

Tropicana Atlantic City – A Caesars Rewards Destination

10/10 Excellent

"The room was excellent "

Sheraton New York Times Square Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel room was clean and the location was very central to the tourist attractions that we visited within 2 days. I love that it's in the heart of the city. Check-in had a very long line, especially because the mobile key option was disabled. The elevators took a long time. There could be more food options on-site and it would be nice if they were offered at more economical prices. We didnt have the opportunity to use the resort credit offered for food because of limited options and extremely busy lines. The staff was friendly for the most part. There were a few inconsistencies and its hard to speak with a front desk representative. The overall hotel experience was great for my family with teenagers. I'd come back again during a non-peak season, outside of the holidays."
