I also took pictures after the hurricane in Queens and Manhattan with an X-Pro1.

I agree, the photos are not very good, just a bunch of fallen trees. IQ is good though

Those pics have nothing to say. That’s the problem. Ok I stop here.

Yes you were right, I over reacted a bit… shame on me… Nevertheless those pics are useless.

C’mon MD, poor taste! disaster porn! picked up the pieces of their lives! Stop weeping and wringing your hands: the pix show uprooted trees and no damage to any of the houses, no floating bodies, no people standing in front of piles of rubble that were once their homes. In that area there must have been high winds and no flooding – that’s the story told. Maybe it is just you.

BP, I’m tempted to agree.

Some of the photos here are indeed nicely shot, so congrats to the photographer on those.

However, many of them are little more than “disaster porn”, and their inclusion seems, to me, to be in poor taste. Listing the camera types right in the headline gives me the odd sense that the photographer was jauntily showing off his photo-toys while everyone else picked up the pieces of their lives. A bit weird, to say the least. Maybe it’s just me?

Hi,

Thanks for the mention! Great site, I come here all the time! Yeah, it’s still pretty messed up here. I haven’t even been into Manhattan yet.
