you betcha, deb! but we're still at 23!!! there's still time!

just click this link, fill in the blanks, and click submit (it should be near the TOP LEFT, just above the form)...and as long as adobe does its thing, everything should be fine. i'll be able to make both name tags and a call list for everyone.

----- if you can't find the submit button just send it to me as an attachment ------------

Hey - quick question: It appears my hotel is not all that terribly far from B&H. So do I get the 50/1.4 or the 85/1.8?

LOL at Germaine.... want me to pick something up for you while I'm there? Though I think Samy's is pretty good, too, and a lot easier to navigate, I'm betting. :-)

Penny, is that what you shoot in the city?

It's safe to say that nearly 100% of the images I've posted over the last year and a half were all taken with an 85mm. It's light, easy to carry and I ain't switching back to a zoom if it can be helped.



eta: It's an artsy lens that I'm sure will inspire you.

come on! if you're on the fence, jump off on this side! this is going to be an incredible opportunity to see nyc like never before. think about it, a private photo tour by one of the best street shooters in the city, taking you to places that took him years to scout out, places that are going to deliver real images.

i feel bad for those who can't make it because of other obligations, but if you can make it, you owe it to yourself. you don't want to be kicking yourself as you look through the forthcoming images, saying, "Damn, and I could have been there!"

THERE'S STILL TIME! we're up to 27 and we'd love to have you with us!

I could not open the pdf form so I tried to send the information you wanted. I am sorry to see it is only around 27 coming. I hope to get there, but if we have severe weather, I am not sure I will get there. I take chills easily.

27 is perfect. There will be many more people over the whole three days but keep in mind if you actually want to meet and get to know anyone in a meaningful way, this is an awesome number. Quality vs. Quantity...trust me.

Here's and amazing Helen Levitt "Street Life" video.

I so wish i could go to NY with you all. I've been there once a long time ago. There's a photo series done by the NY Times that inspires me every time i see it. It may have been on DPC before but I'll post a link to it here in this thread. Maybe some of you will also be inspired by it. Anyway, have fun everyone and i'll be looking forward to seeing some pictures.

Hi Nick!! Welcome to the US of A! :-)

Steve, for some odd reason I don't have your number. I did send you mine, I think. So either call me or send me your number! (We're awake, but not mobile yet... does anyone deliver coffee??)

And yes, B&H is calling my name... it is. I hear it... I think we'll be dragging Rob and Scott with us there later this morning. Wanna go too?
