Except for the power going out in my neighborhood, I don’t have any stories of hardship. I just had to walk to work and walk back in pitch dark every day that week. So I didn’t see any of Sandy’s real devastation, but walking around the deserted downtown Manhattan was enough craziness for me.</p> <p><strong>Note:</strong> If you’re viewing this on the Tumblr dashboard, <a href="http://tumblr.eyeheartnewyork.com/post/37636219209/" target="_blank"><strong>click here</strong> to see all the photos attached to this post</a>.</p> <p>Virtually all of them were shot with my Sony NEX-7 and 24mm lens. No clever skill to them or heavy-post-processing…just bumped the ISO and aperture to the max and <a href="http://photography.bastardsbook.com/lessons/how-to-hold-your-camera-still/" target="_blank">held my breath</a>.
