The professional photographer who lead the tour, Zim, was spectacular. I am a rank beginner, and she was amazinglypatient, knowledgeable, and gave me what I most wanted- a vocabulary with which to understand photography. In our "Safari" there were people of all expertise- from graphic designers to 14 year olds. Zim was able to bring out the best in all of us- and explain some of the key features of photography. I would recommend this to anyone who loves photography, loves New York, and/or loves to learn.
