34 PhOtOs -- PEOPLE of the SUBWAY -*- 6/6/10

Welcome to Part II of this series of photos taken on, during, or about the recent NYTM Lo-V Nostalgia excursion.

Part I can be viewed here: 32 PHOTOS --- NYTM Lo-V Nostalgia - June 6, 2010

Oh, and I'm not sure what this "Low-V" trip was about. I wasn't on that one I guess.

So without further ado, I present to you 34 photos of people. Enjoy!





This girl was pole dancing as the door was opening.

Doesn't it bother your wife a little at your obsession with taking pictures of women?
I remember once at a bus rodeo, a very pretty girl who was there with her bus operator husband/boyfriend got into a shot of I took and my wife grilled me as to why it happened.
I see you still are taking pictures of people surreptitiously also.
Weird.

For someone who won't even allow people to post his real name, you really invade the privacy of others.

Again, using more than one handle = trolling.

It is a genre of photography in the style pioneered by Henri Cartier-Bresson It can be very interesting and tells a story if done correctly. Posed photos, like the ones I take, lose the effect of that spontaneity of simply capturing people going about their daily lives - or in this case being surprised by a rather unusual train.

As for "invasion of privacy" - there is no expectation of privacy in a public space. If he were going into the ladies room to take those pictures then THAT would be an invasion of privacy.

LOL - many years ago we had dinner at the Morocco pavilion at Disney World, which had a belly dance act at the time. Photography was permitted (I have a few pics) but one of the guys got up and followed the girl around the dance floor taking pics paparazzi style from every angle. When he sat back down, his wife/girlfriend was fuming - she did not speak to him for the rest of the evening.

I've taken some random photos of people in the subway, although it is not my preferred style:

Holiday Train 2008

Holiday Train 2008

Holiday Train 2008

Holiday Train 2008

Sometimes random people pose for me:

Holiday Train 2008

_DSC1006

_DSC1007


Or even take pictures OF my model:

Holiday Train 2008

Or pose with my model:

Holiday Train 2008

I gave the girl in the last photo my contact info - she emailed me and I sent her the high resolution version of the pic suitable for printing.

Fantastic photos. I loved the first few shots of the families looking at the train in awe. I also liked the shot of what I call "the professor" with the hat and the white beard.

I remember in St. Paul, two ladies randomly came up to me and asked me to take a goofy picture of them (it was Friday afternoon - maybe that had something to do with it). I found it funny, random, cool, and interesting, and was surprised when they said thanks and continued on their business. *shrug*

Thanks!! I find it funny when people ask me to take their picture but do not even wait for me to give them a business card so they can get a copy...

One time when I was on a photo shoot at Coney Island I waited for this family to pass by - instead they started posing behind my model and signaled for me to take the pic - so I did

DSC_2975

The model did not even realize that this happened till I showed her the picture after the shoot.

Not to mention most of these women are NOT women, but really young girls!! I find this incredibly disturbing!! And I thought this site was about trains and transit!! Nothing at all interesting about these photos at all!! And had one of those been my daughter, there'd be a big, fast, hard fist heading towards his face, many times over!!

This guy needs help, and fast!! And I wonder too if his wife has any feelings about what seems to be a very disturbing obsession?? Only one time had young women been in my pics, and they were at least 18 - 20 years old, and again since this site is about trains, I keep it to trains, as do many others here!!

And not to mention these are really not good at all!! Instead of alter-egoed, idiotic incarnations of handles, he should have been working on his photography!! 2 thumbs DOWN!!

There is nothing wrong with these photos. In fact it's a great set of shots showing people in the subway. You can't resist picking a fight is all this is about.

Dude, not everyone is sexually uptight like you are, where any photo of a female is strongly verboten.

I'd suggest you move to the Middle East where they make women cover themselves.

Plus if you moved there, we wouldn't hear from you, since all you do here is pick fights with other posters. I did a search and didn't find you contributing anything more than fight with Salaam.

This site is about PUBLIC transportation. You know, PEOPLE getting around. I'm sure a lot of people on this site would love to have the subway as some kind of railfan amusement park or museum without any pesky passengers to foul up your photos of the precious trains.

"the subway as some kind of railfan amusement park or museum"

I thought it was already!! The whole regional rail system for that matter.

"pesky passengers to foul up your photos of the precious trains"

Yes indeed!! Many shots have been ruined by an ill-timed person or persons bobbing their heads in the way!!

IAWTP!! Not to mention several in the shots looked like they seemed uneasy about being photographed by a stranger!!

When on duty, I do not care if someone snaps me, most actually ask me if it is okay before they do so, but if I end up in a railfan shot it's all good. If I am off duty, and say out with my family, I am not sure I would be so okay with it.

Yeah, I been slacking too!! But my slacks are caused by being a family man, which is understandable, and working on getting our new home here.

I get out when I get out, mostly I take my camera everywhere I go because the "women in my life" love to do their girl things (aka, The Malls!!!), I do my "foamer" things (snappin' away alongside the rails!!) :-D

Thought about going out and getting some in today, but the chances of rain, and the crappy light and sky conditions kinda turned me off!! Great work on the LIRR shots, Fred!! I need to branch off from the Main Line and go where things are a little simpler. Hard to concentrate on multiple trains!! :-D

I do everything I can to keep people out of my shots, especially women because nowadays, people out here can badly misinterpret things, especially because there are so many jackasses out here doing perverted things with their cameras. I even angle shots where as much as possible I keep operating personnel out of my photos, unless they seem not to mind, which rarely happens.

And the best part of this amusement park, little ol' me can have fun in it for FREE!! :-D

Lately, and as Doctor B has posted here a short time earlier about NYCR tours, I been interested in Fresh Pond, CSX/CP/P&W/NYAR operations on the Bay Ridge and NYCR, and are very interested in getting shots from INSIDE Fresh Pond Yard, especially a nice overhead view of the yard from "Bridge 35". Gonna see if some info I got from some "foamer" co-workers can allow me to get an officially authorized visit to Fresh Pond from NYAR. I will see what happens with that, and of course if it can be done, it shall be posted here, of course!! Wish me luck on that!! Maybe I can have the success of several others I have seen about on the internet lately.

Definitely Queens!! Taxes too damned high in Nassau, though the prices are right!! Queens Village, Addesleigh Park (if I spelled that right, aka St. Albans) and Bellerose are my target areas. I wanna still be able to have reasonable commutes to and from work and a somewhat broad option of crew bases to work out of if one gets a little dry as far a good runs I can hold.

Well, I am not sure if I will keep driving or use the LIRR (if I am working out of GCT). The LIRR seems to be a reasonable way to go, especially since I hear there has been an easement on ball-busting!! I could always drive to Long Island City (Vernon/Jackson) like my other coworkers sometimes do, but I heard there has been quite a bit of street regulation rezoning there, and parking on-street has dried up dramatically for ANYONE who does not have an NYPD parking placard.

I know a few folk who drive to Astoria Blvd park there take the N/W (now Q)to 59/Lex and XFR to 4/5

Some of my coworkers drive up to 125 and take the train down. Also, if you work eves there is a parking facility at 125 that is cheap after 5 or 6 pm

How can you smile when the person doesn't know their pics are being taken without warning?

I remember a thread where I made the following statement, then you and I had a bit of a discussion about it:

Maybe the photographers who lament not being able to photograph only the train can photograph some scenes including the train, such as a candid shot of a father and son at the railfan window, a group of women of non-railfan interest sitting in the car enjoying the nice sunny summer ride, tourists from Wherever who thought the idea is novel, and chronicle THAT instead of the umpteenth photo of the front of 100 or 1575 without any reference to where it is or what time period in which it's being run.

It seems that you are catching onto what I meant by showing other stories than the trains themselves in these increasingly uniform times of the MTA. You took the ball and ran with it. Good work.

The only problem is, and this is solely my opinion, you happen to run across a vast majority of simply unattracive people. I don't know why you seem to be such an "ugly" magnet.

Candid street photography has been going on since cameras were invented.









And if they don't want their pic taken, they'll let you know...
