I enrolled in the NYC Iconic Photography Tour with NYC Photo Safari. Zim was the instructor. She was AMAZING. She’s a professional photographer, so her guidance was based on years and years of experience, and she lives in NYC, so her love for the NYC icons we photographed was obvious as she pointed out the nuances of each structure and shared historical bits of knowledge about them during the tour. Did you know the clock inside Grand Central Terminal is 6-feet tall and is worth tens of millions of dollars because it’s made of opal? And it photographs beautifully.
Zim taught some techniques that I’ve been practicing ever since the course, and I’m definitely signing up for another course.
It’s also a good activity to do while we all stay safe during COVID-19 — wearing a mask is required, the groups are limited in size, we’re outside mostly, we’re moving/walking, we’re able to maintain distance, and we’re handling our own equipment.
Many thanks to Zim and NYC Photo Safari — see you next time!
