Say what you will about the heat and humidity that’s been plaguing our fair borough for the last few weeks — we’ve certainly had our share of miserable, dripping days. But what I can’t complain about is how beautiful the light has been. Thanks to the photographers below, we can relive every last golden sunset [...]

For the Love of Brooklyn is a site that provides Brooklyn photographers with a place to discuss, showcase, and view, Brooklyn photography. This is not a revolutionary concept—there are other sites where you can discuss/showcase your Brooklyn photographs—but there is something very special about FTLOB.

And who’s to tell what the full moon this Thursday night will [...]

It’s been a busy week at For the Love of Brooklyn HQ: giving out-of-town parents a whirlwind tour of Brooklyn’s finest, taking friends from DC to the new Brooklyn Bridge Park, and hosting an impromptu blog meetup in Williamsburg to discuss some exciting plans for the future. I’m looking forward to a relaxing weekend with [...]

Check out the brilliant shots below to keep your spirits high! “Red and Blue Swirl,” by Joel [...]

Though the skies are blue and brilliant today, the recent bout of rain and wind has brought a flood of photos to our Flickr group. Check out a few of the wonderful shots below and we’ll keep our fingers crossed for an abundance of May flowers (as if this month hasn’t brought us enough)! Untitled, [...]

Today’s group of Flickr faves are all about perspective control. While I can’t say with any certainty that these photographers took a tip from this kid, these are all fun (and colorful!) examples of when it pays to get down low. I can’t wait to see more examples filter through the Flickr group — and [...]
