Seeing is Believing at the Village: Halloween NYC Style

This was the first time I went in with a press pass, along with several photographer friends - it was very exiting to be IN the parade and not have to jockey for a viewing position. Paraders took everyone with a camera seriously and readily obliged to pose when asked. This parade is one of the largest in NYC and the country, with an estimated 1,000,000 people attending - it's incredibly conjested for viewers. I have over 300 photos to go through, so I will do a complete post on this tomorrow, and put up many photos here and on my Flickr site. Be prepared for some of the most creative and imaginative costumes you have ever seen
