‘Site Seeing’ Link Round-up

by Deborah on October 1st, 2009 · No Comments ·

binocs.jpg It’s a big city. Lots to do. Lots to see. Occasionally you overdo and you don’t feel like doing much more than sitting around recovering.  Completely understandable. But even if you aren’t going sight seeing – you can still go site seeing. Get it. Sight / Site? OK, yeah. I worked really hard there for very little pay off. Sorry. But, the point remains – there are a lot of sites out there that let you see the Big Apple without getting out of your jammies.

Lots of folks are out there documenting the big and the small, the vistas and the close-ups, the absurd and the sublime. Check out some of the these Gotham-centric photoblogs:

  • New York Daily Photo: “a daily photo blog of the timely, the timeless, the classic, the unexpected and the hidden gems by a long time resident who shares his love of New York.”
  • Greenwich Village Daily Photo: obviously it’s one of the most picturesque and interesting parts of the city but even someone who’s walked the the area for years – that would be me – sees something new in these shots
  • nyc daily photo:  one city – one day – one picture. She may claim to be merely a “happy-snapper note-taker” as opposed to a photographer but I love these pictures. It is very much like taking one of my own walks through the city
  • Pictures from a Taxi: Just like is says on the tin – a look at the city from a pretty unique angle.
  • missbinnyc: says she hopes “this blog will inspire me to take more photos of the world around me and become a better photographer. ” Well, the pictures are inspiring to me and I bet I am not alone.

There’s tons of photoblogs out there, of course. I could spend all day perusing shots of New York and never see the same thing twice. But I thought, as I head off for the weekend, I’d share some of the “regular stops” on my NYC ‘site’ seeing tours.
