This is an excellent video! :) It's great to see what goes on while you're sleeping in New York. So peaceful and relaxing, and the sunset views around the 6:15 a.m. area are fantastic.
Thank you so much for sharing Matte.

This video shows the Fulton Fish Market in full swing.
Makes me regret that I didn't get down there to see it when I was there in 2005.
By the time I returned in 2007 it had closed, and moved to the Bronx.

Great video and interplay with the music. He's very talented. It starts out slow and builds up, then finishes light. I love the music too; I'd like to find out the title; I've heard of Sigur Ros, now I'll have to get some of their stuff.

I worked the midnight shift at Newark airport for 9 years. On cold winter dawns, our hangar (#55) would be bathed in the most incredible purple light. It's the only place I have seen dawns like that.
The lower Manhattan skyline was simply amazing on those crystal clear nights, especially when the moon would rise. It would come up behind the finantial distict, and from the right vantage point, would rise between the twin towers. I would find a secluded spot and just sit there to watch it unfold.

It's really amazing how big cities are so different in the early morning.
