New York City, Lower East Side
“Henry Street School Leaves a Light On”
We started shooting late on this day, and the night caught us. We took advantage of that to teach the students how to shoot a different way. We never use a flash – our Brownie doesn’t have one. But we did shoot in long exposures, holding the camera perfectly still and keeping a finger on the shutter release while counting…to 10, to 20, to 15, depending upon the subject and the light. Here, the school wakes up for a night on the lower east side. Other buildings joined in later.
