A print from my series “The Booth” is included in ten, a group exhibition celebrating the tenth anniversary of Jen Bekman Gallery. The show opens tomorrow, Friday, March 1, and there will be an artist reception for the exhibition on Friday, March 15th from 6 to 8 p.m. The exhibition will be on view through Sunday, March 31st.

From the gallery’s press release:

The gallery’s tenth anniversary exhibition features work from artists currently represented by the gallery, winners of our international photo competition Hey, Hot Shot!, participants in past group exhibitions, friends, staff, and others who have helped us leave a mark over the past decade. The gallery had just one requirement for the artists: that they interpret the word "ten." Other than suggesting they might explore the idea of ten years passing or the numeral 10, we gave them free rein to go wherever their minds, hands and tools took them.

The exhibition features work by: Ian Baguskas, Agnes Barley, Kate Bingaman-Burt, Mara Bodis-Wollner, Christian Chaize, Christine Collins, Jorge Colombo, Benjamin Donaldson, Beth Dow, Peter Haakon Thompson, Anne Hall, Joseph O. Holmes, Gregory Krum, Carrie Marill, Sarah McKenzie, Dana Miller, Jane Mount, Michelle Muldrow, Keri Oldham, Youngna Park, Laura Plageman, Colleen Plumb, Jason Polan, Kent Rogowski, Tod Seelie, Jill Silverberg, Mike Sinclair, Jessica Snow, Alec Soth, Amy Stein, Tema Stauffer, Jeffrey Teuton, Kurt Tong, Chikara Umihara, and Seldon Yuan.

    Nothing more NYC than that. I must have done this exact thing a thousand times.

    The white circle looks like the headlight of a train, but it can’t be, right? You’d see the light inside the first car through the end door, and don’t NYC subway trains have side-by-side headlights?

    Anyway, what always blows me away (technically speaking) is the lack of noise in your low light pictures. Is this post-processing or is the D600 just that good, if you don’t mind my asking?

    Thanks,
    Eric

    Thanks, Eric! The white light must just be a light in the tunnel — no train was coming…

    I shot this with the D800, not D600, but I’d be willing to be either camera has the same low noise at ISO 1600, at which this image was shot. And any noise in the shot disappears once you reduce the image to 950 pixels high, like this one.
