Another blizzard another “Who wants to take naked pictures in the snow?” tweet. This time my friend Vicki responded.  I have shot her before, but anyone willing to get naked in the snow needs to be photographed again.  I tried to meet up with her before I watched the US/Finland Olympic Hockey game last weekend but we got our signals crossed so it didn’t happen.  I was watching the game in a bar on St. Marks St. when I got her call.

She met me out right before third period started.  We ran outside into Astor Place on the corner of 3rd Ave and St Marks and just started shooting. No one really bugged us or paid attention.  This is why NYC is so great.  I did over hear one person say “If she want attention so much, I’m not going to give it to her” but that was about it.  I went back into the bar and looked at the photos.  I decided we needed to get a few more so we went back outside for another few minutes.  This time we got a crowd of people with camera phones but no one really bothered us.

It was my first time shooting with my new telephoto lens so I wasn’t quite used to the focusing and the depth of field issues, but I think we got some good shots and I can tell I am going to love this lens.  That being said I think one of the better shots was one I took with my 35mm point in shoot.  I posted it on my new Tumblr.

Anyway, check out all the pictures of Vicki naked in the middle of NYC during a blizzard.  You will be glad you did.  NSFW of course.
