So, I'm having issues shooting the NYC skyline. I recently moved across the Hudson, and have a perfect view of the length of Manhattan. Issue is, I'm new to my DSLR and there's a little bit of light flooding behind me. I'm also not sure why the lights of the city almost make me dizzy to look at. I'm using a heavy tripod, so it's not a lack of a steady surface...</p>

<p>Disregard the awful pictures/set up below... It's just an example of what I'm having issues with. </p>

<p>Any help would be grateful! I've tried under exposing, over exposing and changing the F/stop. I'm sure it's an easy fix, but I thought I'd ask!</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>
