Driving across the George Washington Bridge. I know I have other shots like this, and likely to have more shots like this, but I can't help it. As long as they prohibit camera use on bridge, I'm going to keep wanting to use my camera on the bridge.
We were driving to Peggy's on the upper west side. She was cooking:

Why do they prohibit camera use on the bridge, and how do they enforce it?
It's for post-9/11 security reasons, even though there's no evidence that photography is integral for a terrorist attack on a target, and no evidence that preventing photography will prevent an attack on a target. I'm sorry, even allowing for valid security measures, the prohibition on photography is simply bone-headed, and therefore not really surprising.
They "enforce" it by stationing workers in the towers. I've never heard of anyone being stopped on the GWB, but I have on the Verrazano Narrows Bridge. Those cases were all digital and the people stopped were willing to let the authorities view the pictures taken. I don't know what they would do in regard to film photography.
