On October 27th,
1904, the first subway opened in NYC,
running north from City Hall to Harlem.
Over the years, our city developed its
neighborhoods and outer communities, to
a great degree, as the train system
increased its scope in different
directions. Today, the subway remains a
key element of our city and the urban
landscape, a topic of frequent
conversation, and a superb place to
photograph.
In October and November 2003, in
celebration of the public observance of
the subway's centennial, I spent about
70 hours on the trains and in the
stations - usually in dry weather, but
sometimes wet - trying to evoke some of
the subway experience, both the humanity
and the architecture. This two part
workshop recreates my exploration for a
small group of photographers. We'll ride
the trains to various parts of the city
to document some of the NYC subway
experience.
This class is appropriate for
intermediate or advanced photo
enthusiasts who own DSLR equipment and a
range of lenses. Additional photographs
from my 2003 project can be seen here. Class
size limited to six.
The NYC Subway
Experience is one of a series of NYC area
classes that I teach. See the entire schedule and sign up for
my class mailing list to hear about
new dates for workshops and photo outings.
Hope you can join us!
