About this series

I first photographed the moon intersecting with the statue of Liberty in 2014.

That night in 2014 I was just taking a photo of the Statue of Liberty when I noticed the moon rising heading towards the crown of Lady Liberty and I was just stunned at how beautiful the Statue of Liberty looked with the moon rising behind it.

After that I was hooked, I started researching how to predict and capture the moon rising behind the statue.. This was before all of the apps. I was obsessed with trying to capture a more perfect alignment.

These editions represent the best of my Luna Liberty alignment captures since 2014.

I am Kirit Prajapati, a self-taught photographer, on a quest to capture shots that are overlooked in this fast paced life. My photography is fuelled by my curiousness to capture frames from a different and unique perspective. I am passionate about capturing the cityscapes especially during the ‘magic hours’. The dawn and dusk create beautiful radiant skies. The combination of nature’s art and manmade marvels create a beautiful symphony.

I am a native of Gujarat state in India and currently living in New Jersey with my family. I have captured New York city’s iconic landmarks like Empire State Building, Freedom Tower, Chrysler Building, Brooklyn and Manhattan Bridges and many more. Needless to say this is only the beginning and there are many more yet to capture. I won the “My Empire State Building Contest” in 2013.

I absolutely love the New York city’s skyline. I have been watching it for 14 years and I am in awe every time I look at it. There is something about it that makes me fall in love with it every time and I want to capture and share these moments with the entire world.

Witness the city life through my lens.
