NY Times: Have Camera, Will Trespass, on Brooklyn’s Waterfront | By Sewell Chan | July 31, 2008, 11:00 am
“Nathan Kensinger generally does not ask for permission when he photographs the decaying remnants of Brooklyn’s industrial waterfront. Since 2003, he has wandered into shuttered factories, padlocked basements and forbidding warehouses. He often goes along with other photographers who have an adventurous bent. He hasn’t been arrested, yet, but he doesn’t want to tempt fate, either.”
In reality, there is quite a bit more to location scouting than just “getting in” a location - in fact, that is just the beginning … Location Scouting at Wikipedia …but, then, the Times story wasn’t really about location scouting anyway, altho, it is mentioned that Nathan is a location scout for Law and Order…
That said, there is no intent to detract from the motivation and beauty of Nathan’s photography, which is quite impressive!
