Hey guys. Im going to NY next week and i am looking for interesting things to go see related to photo. This can be photo-stores, photo-museums and so on.

Also does any brand have their HQ in NY that you can visit and get a tour or somethin?

thanks.

There is this one place were there are a billion different photographic opportunities. Manhattan :D. You can have a blast just walking around for a day. You will return home with some very interesting shots. Also the B&H idea is very good to. Im sure there are some galleries there to but ive never been to one. Oh and not photography related, if you like art visit the Alex Grey gallery, its amazing, one of my favorite places to go. Hope this helped :).

Hi,
Go down to the Battery; it's at the lower tip of Manhattan. Easy to get to, good photo ops of the Brooklyn Bridge; take a free ride on the Staten Island Ferry, get great shots of the Statue of Liberty. The South Street Seaport area is there also. The Empire State Building, great views of Manhattan, the Chrysler Building, the Wall Street area.. neat architecture.
Central Park.. on and on. Have a great time

How long will you be there? I reckon I could spend a day and a half in the B&H superstore ;)
