Brooklynites, Lend Us Your Ears (and Eyes)

No, we don’t need your money, but we do need your input. As you may have noticed, we’ve been blogging solo in the new year to reflect the new austerity that is upon us. (Although ads are down like everywhere else, last week was the biggest traffic week ever so it’s not all doom and gloom around here!) And while we’re actually pleased with the regained editorial control, the shift does limit our mobility (i.e. we’re chained to our computer). Therefore, more than ever, we need readers to be our eyes and ears on the streets. So if you’re a regular and you happen to own a digital camera, we’d be forever grateful if you’d try carrying it around with you and snapping developments, storefronts and other curiosities for us. As always, you can opt for credit or anonymity.
Thanks,
Mr. B
Another interview with Catsimatidis would be great right now. Ask him to justify idling the dirt piles along Myrtle while still burning cash ripping off and litigating Trader Joe’s trademark rights and turning around defunct oil companies in Oklahmoma.
Bob, do you have a darkroom in your basement? I have a cellar room that would be perfect for that.
Still using a darkroom? You’ve gotta be the coolest poster on here by far.
You go, Bob Marvin!
Holgas are cheap cwbuecheler–they’re fun too.
Brownstoner – Yep, I understand. Tips via email, pics via flickr.
Bob Marvin – Sure, but I’d still need a camera for that, which I don’t have. 🙂
You don’t even need a digital camera. Film, a one hour lab, and a CD of the images, or a scan of the 4 X 6 print works as well. Or you can shoot B&W film, develop the negatives yourself, and scan them, which is what I do for online stuff.[I make my REAL prints prints in the darkroom, but that’s another story].
cwb,
better to send the blog-worthy scoops directly to us and pretty pictures straight to flickr.
thanks
If I hadn’t left my digital cam in a taxi several months ago, I’d have already flooded the flickr group with shots. :\
Soon as I get a new one, I’ll start doing so!
