EVENT: We're sponsoring, and our publisher is hosting, the NYC Photobloggers event tonight. Come over to the Apple Store to see a dazzling display of digital images and the faces behind the photos: Eliot Shepard, Jay Parkinson (yes, that Jay Parkinson) and a whole lot more will be on hand. There will also be a special presentation by Jen Bekman of 20x200, Hey Hot Shot, and the Jen Bekman Gallery and an after party at Merc Bar.

EVENT: NYC Photobloggers will take over the Apple Store again tonight, for the 7th of their events there. The A-list...um, list, of past photographers is a long one. Six more will join the ranks tonight, as they are the centerpieces for this event. They are:

Did SNL's Bill Hader get some free gear?

If you love photography, there's only one place you should be tonight: the Apple Store SoHo from 5:30-8pm. The NYC Photobloggers group is throwing their sixth event-- a fun filled spectacular kicking off with a demo of Aperture at 5:30pm, and followed by presentations by six of NYC's best photobloggers at 6:30pm: Corrie and Lex of officersrow.org, Joseph Holmes of Joe's NYC, Noah Kalian of Noah Kalina Interiors, Tod Seelie of Of Quiet, Jimmie Yoo of cornershots.com, and Reza Mazaheri of Photos by Reza Mazaheri. The Apple Store was nice enough to donate a copy of Aperture ($500 value!) and many of the photographers are raffling prints, so if you swing by, you might get a present! Cost: absolutely free. Bonus: Gothamist is sponsoring free beer after the show at a local bar as part of our 3rd Birthday week. See you there!

The NYC Photobloggers are out in full effect this week documenting the changing foliage. Our favorite images come from Rion's set today, but 114th, Heather Champ, and Quarlo also have some beauties. And for more, Flickr's "leaves" tag has been giving us a whole heap of pretty. Check it out.

Apparently rents in SoHo have gotten so high that even the big brands can only afford to open stores for a month! First there was Galleria Illy, the coffee house sponsored by the Italian coffee company, open on West Broadway off Broome since September (it closes on December 15). Now Kodak is breezing into the neighborhood for November-- their Kodak One Gallery will be open at the corner of Wooster and Spring from November 1st to the 27th. From the looks of that nifty computer drawing above, they've got a neat space laid out (although it's a little spooky that all the sales guys are wearing the same uniform!) Best of all, for $25 they'll scan 250 of your prints to their Kodak Easyshare gallery, which is a pretty good price, especially if you don't need lab-quality scanning. They're also going to offer a bunch of Digital Photography lectures and one-hour courses-- perfect if you're tired of hitting the Apple Store for your SoHo brand-centric "education". Our pick:

- Luckily no one was seriously hurt when a school bus toppled over on the Major Deegan Expressway; authorties say that the kids' seatbelts might have saved them - check out this picture from Newsday

Looking for something to do this Friday? Well, why not start off the night with some photoblogs!

- And presentations from Flickr and Fotolog.

As if the huge banner at the top of this page wasn't enough of a clue... Gothamist wants to make sure everyone comes out to the Apple Store tonight for NYC Photobloggers 2. The event is from 6-8PM, which will give you plenty of time to get home for the debate at 9PM.

Tomorrow night NYC Photobloggers take over Soho's Apple Store. Again. It's been about 7 months since their last gathering so come check out what's new at this next live photography exhibit. If you missed the last one, check out the hightlights here.

Gothamist is pleased to announce the addition of four great New York City photoblogs to our list of links- Metroplus, RedElphBear, Lackadaisical, and Overshadowed (where we got the picture above). Gothamist is also organizing our second NYC Photobloggers event at the Apple Store in SoHo, tentatively set for Thursday, September 30th, 2004. If you would like to participate, help organize, or sponsor the event, shoot us an email.

It was a great night at the SoHo Apple Store last night, with the NYC Photobloggers Exhibition. Not only did we get to see the photographs of clarsen, slower, Bluejake, Laura Holder (above), Infrangible, rion.nu, Satan's Laundromat, 990000, and lightningfield, we also got to more about their respective starts, processes, and favorite subjects - a nice sampling of different outlooks on photoblogging. Additionally, Anil spoke about Six Apart's Typepad (and demonstrated its moblog potential by creating one of the evening) and Adam and Scott explained the beauty of fotolog.net and its community building aspects. Thanks, photobloggers and friends!

Stop by the Apple Store in SoHo tonight at 6PM for an Evening of NYC Photobloggers. Seven NYC photobloggers will be showing their photographs and speaking about their work. Ask rion how she picks what kinds of bulidings appear on the site's little design elements. Ask Eliot why his site works the way it does. Ask Jake why he has one camera devoted to Thompson. We hope to see you there tonight. If you arrive early, there may be some cookies for you as well.
