Hey all,
as I'm "in the area" (Florida, but for me that's in the area) from the 28th of July (late in the evening) till the 1st of August, so I will spend 4 days in the big apple. From those days I'm planning 2 in the city, and 2 days spotting (JFK and LGA). As I leave for home (back to the windmills ;)) on Monday the 1st, I was thinking to put that date from some JFK spotting, as that will be my departure airport. As I recon the sunday is a 'quiet' day in the city, that day would be best for some LGA photography (now just hoping for the weather).
You're probably all thinking "well nice to know, but what does that guy want?" . What I am looking for is some advice where to go at JFK and LGA (as I don't have a car), where not to go, what to do, what not to do and so on. I allready found Art Brett's website, and LGA looks do-able on foot, JFK remains a mistery for me. Also I see plenty of shots from LGA at airliners.net wich seem to be taken from above ground level, somewhere in the terminal.
Can you guys perhaps help me out a bit, and if you want perhaps meet up?

P.S. I'll post a thread about hotels and the city later on in the aproprirate sub-forum.
