ADDITIONAL NOTES:

above, random shots from riding the rails and walking thru tunnels. for more subway photography, browse these subway sets, read june's village voice article forbidden photos, anyone?, or search thru laura holder's subway shots...

laura and i will be representing the local photoblogger women at the new york city photobloggers 2 event at the apple store this thursday, 6pm. we'll all be mentioning favorite photoblogs (so bring a pen and paper) but i want to specifically mention other nyc women photobloggers (not blogs, but nyc-based photo-specific endeavors like kdunk, sharonwatt, leticia john, annapoet, hnorthrop or youngna, to name just a few) so if you have suggestions, drop me a line or feel free to comment...

the event is open to the public. see the full lineup.

Lovin' the last of these photos, very Amelie.
I adore the view from the train over the Manhattan Bridge... considering the new subway-photo laws, were you stopped or spoken to at all while taking these? Curious.
[I wish my nyc photoblog was up already! ...Soon, tho. ]

#2 and #3 have such nice, but different fuzzy, fluorescent glows.

my favorite is the crossword puzzle - it captures the subway mood well.

mike: really? thats weird because on friday i was almost arrested for "looking" like i was taking pictures in the subway. they hassled me for 30 minutes, searching if i had any warrants out for my arrest etc.
