I don't care much for the pose, but the photo is well lit.
It just doesn't really say "dance" to me. This says "DANCE", even if
it's not under the bridge

Well, that google images link certainly show that it's been done to
death.
Nevertheless, at least someone has found a way to squeeze a few drops
of bad taste from the image of an enormous phallus penetrating a
vesica piscis:

Plug these numbers into Google Maps search bar:

DUMBO means Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass. I found that out
using TinEye to search and see if I could find the original of the image.
It doesn't look like the sun is setting in the north to me.
It looks like the sun has set in the north-west (as it would during the
summer at that latitude) and the glow from the sky is illuminating the
bridge & the Empire State Building. From the beginning of Spring through
the first day of Fall, the sun will appear to set north of due west
(between 270 deg & 302.5 deg).
Look it up on The Photographer's Ephemeris

Apparently, with the right lighting & weather conditions you can see the
Empire State Building through the Manhattan Bridge supports from
Washington St. in Brooklyn.

The image is great, but it's been done so many times I don't know if
there's anything new I could add by making the pilgrimage myself to have
my own shot at it. But IF I'm ever up that way, I might give it a shot
anyway.

Call me sad, but I've just been on Google maps and then Google
streetview. If you put yourself on Washington Street between Water St
and Front St you can see that view, albeit without the somewhat
mysterious phenomenon of the sun apparently rising or setting in the
north. But it's in a district called Dumbo, so what do I know?
