The MTA may soon ban amateur photographers from wielding cameras in the subway (and make some pros get permits), in hopes of thwarting terrorists from doing any underground research. The period for public comment on the proposed law just ended, and before the agency votes on whether to enact it, we put up a posting on our Website asking subway riders to send in images from their trips on a rush-hour 6, a station escalator, or a near-deserted L train.
