As the forecast for Brooklyn includes blizzard-like conditions yet again, I’m sitting snug and warm after an exciting commute in the snow with my camera. Though some news sources are predicting a foot of snow and 50+mph winds tonight, is it wrong that I’m just a little bit excited? Anyone have plans to go shoot this afternoon or later this evening?
Check out some of my warm-up shots below from the South Slope, Gowanus, and DUMBO! And make sure to contribute your own to our Flickr pool!
I’ve already posted a few from the snowstorms we’ve been having this February in Brooklyn, but I wanted to post this last one. So often, when a photogenic weather event such as a snow storm happens, photographers (myself absolutely included) immediately think about where to go to get the best shots. As I was sitting in my apartment debating about where to venture while enjoying a nice heavy beer to compliment the winter storm, I paused for a second to look out my kitchen window.
I had been so wrapped up in thinking about where to go, that I forgot about the beauty of the scene sitting right in front of me. I grabbed the film camera, adjusted the settings, and took a shot.
