    More info on this mission + tons of photos: http://improveverywhere.com/2009/09/22/subway-yearbook-photos/

    For our latest mission, we installed a photography studio on a random subway car. We claimed that the MTA had hired us to take photos of every single person who rides the subway and that we’d be producing a yearbook at the end of the year. Most people were happy to pose for us, and the resulting photos show just how diverse New York subway riders can be.

      Taking good pictures on a subway is hard, with all the rattling and banging around. Im impressed with the quality of the shots; I personally find these alot better then those who prepare and get made up.

      Sadly for your sake, your so called “education” has only made you less clear, and also persuaded people around you to think you’re an asshat. The remark about your penis only has convinced me even more of this.

      I’ve seen that on trains before, though the photographer just used his cell phone and for some reason you had to take off your pants.

      Some umbrellas are used as reflectors and the open end faces the subject. Some are used as shoot-thru diffusers and the flash shoots through the umbrella instead. He is using them perfectly fine.
