I understand this should maybe be in the other section BUT i really need a locals view and knowledge to help me out here................


I am heading out to NYC this Christmas, il be there for a few weeks and have previously spent a lot of time in New York having lived in Connecticut for quite some time.

I am now back in England and was hoping someone could give me some new ideas for places to visit that arent so much touristy. I have done the obvious sites and i am interested in photography of a 'different side of manhatten'.

I would like to visit the following.....

Real new york style bar
Is brooklyn worth visiting for photo's?
Manhatten neighbourhood
Anything that really does sum NY up to a local.
As i said my emphasis will be on photo's of the city so any hidden away places that give you a fantastic view of the skyline and the character of the city would be much appreciated!

James.
