W Fourth Street and Macdougal Street
New York, New York 10012

Join the one and only Smoothdude, Daniel Krieger, and Thomas Hawk for a photowalking expedition NY style. We will start at 3pm under the Washington Square Arch in Greenwich Village at Washington Square Park, spend some time down in the subways and also possibly hit the top of the Empire State Building or Rockefeller Center for an early evening cityscape view.

This photowalk is a work in progress, so if you have ideas on how to contribute or make it more successful please chime in.

Cool. Although hanging out around Empire State Building / Rockefeller around the holidays can be a bit of a mess...

jmeeter

NathanWeinberg

Obstructionist

Do I need a real big-boy camera or can I just bring my phone?

dparmet

Good luck with Rockefeller Center... it'll be a madhouse two weeks before Xmas. But I'll be there anyway!

calanan

tomharrison

Looks like we may get some snow. Bring yer hats and boots! Calanan: I'm free all day Saturday.

smoothdude

are we really meeting in Wash Square park?

thomas hasnt returned my emails so i dont know where he's at.. ill try to post a meeting time/place when i speak to TH

trevorcarpenter

Rock on! You guys are going to have a great time!

smoothdude

Since the weather is supposed to be bad later..maybe we can meet around 2pm instead of 3pm.

so how many people are going to be there?

tomharrison

That's the assumption I've been under.

I'm down to start earlier. Nothing wrong with a little pre-game action. As of now it's supposed to start snowing around 9pm.

thomashawk

Looking forward to tomorrow's walk. If anyone needs to get a hold of me my mobile phone number is on my profile on Facebook.

Filmosity

Oh no kidding, Thomas will be there??? I'll be in the area around that time, but probably won't be able to join you guys. Have fun, and I hope you get to come back to NYC soon!

smoothdude

TH I don't use facebook. send me a gmail u putz

so lets say wash square park by the fountain 2pm tomorrow?

bestdamntech

Hopefully i can make it!

Kadath

Any idea of an agenda? Starting at 3 its gonna get dark pretty quickly and I dont know how many of us will be travelling with tripods =)

I'll try to be there by 2PM but will be in the city earlier with family so I might be closer to the 3PM official start time. My cell is 908 461 7181 if the group moves much past the WSPark before 3.

dparmet

looks like the snow is staying away until late - around midnight. see you all tomorrow!

Kadath

On my way from Jersey soon, and I've decided to lug my tripod after all.

Looks like UnsilentNight is at Washington Square Park tonight at 7PM, that should be pretty interesting if you can do high ISO or Flash:

dparmet

Diana Pappas
