Winter Photography in NYC – Charter Oak Photographic Society

Thank you to the Charter Oak Photographic Society, Stan Tetrault, and Peter Guerard for inviting me to come share some thoughts on Winter Photography in New York City this past week.

Below is a summary of most of the various tools and pieces of gear I mentioned during the presentation. Watch here for an updated version of the planning post linked below in the next few weeks as well as an annotated version of the presentation if I can find time in the day!

Until then, here is a link to the slides from the Charter Oak Photo Society presentation.
