Meetup in NYC

The_Traveler · Jan 20, 2015

please indicate your interest in a NYC meetup in May or June.

My first idea is to start on Friday eve with early eve shoot.
group wanders on Sat/Sun AM, museum/gallery sat afternoon

As many group meals as possible.

Ideas and involvement happily accepted.
There is no doubt that staying right in Manhattan is expensive but transportation from the outer boroughs is cheap and relatively quick.

I'm interested.

Too far for me.

I would be interested. No guarantee I could get the $ to go but would like to try.

I'd be interested, but only in a day trip, as I am relatively close (and cheap). I could take a very early train and meet somewhere in midtown, then I probably would leave late afternoon/early evening (early dinner?).

The_Traveler · Jan 20, 2015

Philly is probably the outer perimeter for day trips.
It's a two hour bus/train to mid-town.

Anyone who has ideas for any early morning Sat shooting would be welcomed; I've never found much moving before 10 AM

KenC · Jan 20, 2015

Oh, I know, I was born and raised in NYC, so I've made that trip quite a bit. I might even drive depending on the details of where and when.

As to subject matter, most of mine doesn't move, so any time would be OK.

I think I can make it. We will be doing volunteer job at Cape Cod Canal.
SquarePeg, we could ride together if you want. Hotel is up in the air. Would split a room or I may have a place if needed.
Keep me in the loop.

Depending on the weekend, I could try to get there for a day.

In-laws are in Brooklyn, so it would be an easy trip to the city.

I'm very intrigued. I live in Manhattan so it won't be all that difficult for me to get wherever we decide to go.

If I come up with any spectacular ideas I'll post them up here. Can't wait!!!

The_Traveler · Jan 23, 2015

Good, other ideas for shooting spots are needed.

sm4him · Jan 23, 2015

Well, it's "only" 709 miles away…

Much as I'd love to, this one's out of my reach!

The Brooklyn Bridge on the Brooklyn side is an amazing view. There's an excellent area in Dumbo for architecture shots of the bridge, portraiture, and cityscapes of Manhattan all 35-40 minutes from Midtown. I could scope it own when I have some spare time to make sure It will be good for a group.
