RE: #Photography: New York, and all that I learned from the 'Big Apple'
hi @imagendevoz
as a traveler I must be honest and tell you that New York is not at the top of my wish list. but W O W, your photos are fantastic and made me want to be there to enjoy the view! I always thought that in such a big city (like all the big cities eh) I would feel lost and alone in the midst of a lot of traffic and a multitude of people running. It is not so? you seem to have felt at home instead ... How long did you stay there? how much time do you suggest for a proper visit to the city?
Congratulations and thank you for sharing with us
I visited for a month and would suggest that the visit be around that time. It gives plenty of time to do and enjoy just about everything the city offers. Traffic didn't bug me as much since I walked just about everywhere. I would suggest finding a place to stay at in Long Island City as it is the most convenient if you are on a tight budget. New York really wasn't on the top of my wish list either to be honest - I would have much rather preferred Italy, Turkey or Alaska. But that's just it - I kind of wanted to disappear and feel 'lost' for a while; You really don't feel alone, at least in my opinion. Hope you do consider adding it to your list, I would recommend the visit.
well, it seems to me that it has very similar tastes at the top of the list !! thank you for your long answer, I think that sooner or later we will be ready for NY and then maybe we'll fall in love with it! maybe at Christmas, like in the movies! and what about photography? Are you a professional photographer or is it a passion? because your pics are amazing!
I have to warn you to pack a lot of warm clothes if you plan on heading there in winter - it does get freezing! No, I wouldn't claim to be a professional photographer at all. I used a lowly Canon EOS 1200D and made use of the on-board settings to get the right lighting etc. But thank you for the feedback and compliment.
