lippe Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 I posted a small folder of images from the blackout to a photo.net <a href="http://www.photo.net/photodb/folder?folder_id=329713"> gallery. </a> All Manhattan bridge pictures so far.. the rest is still in the frig. I was pretty disappointed in the local press coverage. Wasn't this a rare opportunity to get strangely lit shots of the city, not another occasion for flash abuse? </p> If anyone can point me to some cool documentation of the blackout, I'd appreciate it.

robert_byrd1 Posted August 23, 2003 Author Share Posted August 23, 2003 Good shots, E lippe. Get the rest of them out of the fridge and off to the lab so we can see them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl Stone Posted August 23, 2003 Share Posted August 23, 2003 "No lights in Chinatown" I love the Astro Van caught driving on the sidewalk, going against the flow of traffic at the expense of the pedestrians. There always one like this in every crowd. IMO, the 50mm was a good choice here to show a slice of life at that moment. What would you call the atmosphere in that shot, controlled confusion?

lippe Posted September 11, 2003 Share Posted September 11, 2003 Snopes.com has an interesting little brief on why this photo is fake. I thought it particularly interesting to photo.net members. Fakery in the digital age is easy enough, that it can be excercised for entertainment value alone. </p> <A HREF ="http://www.snopes.com/photos/blackout.asp">Snopes</a>, a site dedicated to confirming or disproving myths, rumors, allegations. </P> Enjoy..
