WNYC Street Shots Producer Benjamen Walker and Judge Luc Sante: facing the microphone and the sun
The response to our Street Shots contest has been truly overwhelming: 7000+ pictures and 800+ participants. The WNYC culture staff is hard at work identifying potential winners, but we are bringing in a judge with a fine eye to make the final call. Luc Sante, is an author, historian, and a picture blogger and when it comes to New York photography, one of the finest eyes out there. Lucky for us he has agreed to pick our winner from the pack. On one of his recent visits to the station we took a walk to nearby Columbus Park to record a conversation for the radio.
You can listen to our conversation over here, or check out our extended, unedited version below:

It was a real treat to hear this conversation with Luc Sante. Live from the former Five Points, no less!

Good question, arthur.
The winning photographer will be contacted directly over Flickr sometime next week. But, stay tuned to Street Shots for a special announcement that involves everyone who entered the Street Shots Challenge.

Exciting project to be part of. Entering images and creating photostream introduced me to FLICKR.
