About two dozen photographers gathered yesterday afternoon to take photos of the Atlantic Yards footprint. The Atlantic Yards Camera Club meeting was inspired by the recent experience of videographer Katherin McInnis, who says an MTA cop harassed her—allegedly trying to confiscate her camera—while she was taking pictures around AY. No Land Grab has a summary of yesterday’s events, and blogs including Brit in Brooklyn, Dope on the Slope, and Flatbush Gardener have posted some of the photos they snapped. MTA police apparently circled the footprint in a cruiser but didn’t mess with the photographers.
