Feel the Beat

This are the streets of Wynwood, the art district here in Miami. I stood on this side walk and watch this man play for what it seemed like hours. It was hot out and he was covered in sweet, but he kept on playing. I enjoy street performers, its like the purest form of art to me, they stand there with no expectations and do their thing. I love it. This particular guy was playing caribbean music witch just put a smile on everyone around him… And as always, this was edited with Nik Software. In my opinion the best collection of editing tools out there. Spread the love peeps…

Did you have a good weekend? Here is a photo I took at the Miami Heat Victory Parade. It all happened so fast, I was walking on the side of the road to my car and this guy jumped in the middle of the street to take a photo of the buildings, I had one split second to react and jump behind him and take this shot. As soon as he took the photo he walked back to his wife and before you know it the moment was over. I shot this after he took the photo of the buildings as I did not want his hands to be holding a camera in my photo. Happy Monday peeps… Spread the love…

This is for you Camila

Happy Thursday. I can’t believe this week is almost done. Not sure if you have heard about the Miami Marine Stadium, well this is it. I come here often. This place serves as a great canvas for any kind of photo shoot you can imagine. It also serves as a place to come chill and meet like minded people expressing them selves in their own ways. Its crazy every time I come here I walk away with new friends, new photographs and amazing experiences. I took this photo from about 30 feet high as you ca see from the pic I was rather close to the edge (you can see in the video how high up I was). There is also access to the roof from where Im standing were you can find your local skaters tearing it up…

History
The 6,566 seat stadium was built in 1963 on land donated for “water sports,” and designed by architect Hilario Candela, then-a 28-year-old recent immigrant from Cuba. It was dedicated as the Ralph Munroe Marine Stadium opened, completed at a cost of around $2 million ($15.2 million, adjusted for current inflation). A speed boat racer, James Tapp, was killed on opening day. The venue, located just south of Downtown Miami, was revered for its scenic views of Downtown and Miami Beach, hosting motorboat events, and events featuring the likes of Mitch Miller, Sammy Davis, Jr., and U.S. President Richard Nixon (whose seasonal winter residence, dubbed “the Florida White House,” was on nearby Key Biscayne).
From its opening for nearly 30 years, the stadium was used for its intended “water sports” as well as concerts, sporting events such as boxing, which began in 1972. In the wake of Hurricane Andrew, it was declared an unsafe building under Miami-Dade County building code on September 18, 1992. In 2004, $3,000,000 was pledged in a municipal bonds by county residents for the restoration and renovation of the facilities.

Riding Around

Top of the morning to all my people. What a crazy weekend, I wanted to relax and take it ez but the camera never left my hands, I love it.

Here is a photo I shot a few nights ago walking around the streets of Miami. The way to capture this sort of photo is to slow down your shutter speed and pan while focussed on the subject. I spotted this bicycle about 30 feet away so I had to be fast and so I snapped 3 photos while panning, this is the one that made it here.

Have a great rest of the day peeps… Go make some art and share it with the world… The world without self expression is plain and borring… Spread the love…

Don’t Stop till You get Enough

I shot this a few months back at an art walk (I love art walks) here in Miami at the Wynwood Art District. This kid was shooting photos of his parents and I couldn’t help my self to take some pix of him. They were having such a great time together. This is one of my favorite photos of all times…. Whats yours?

Where is the Sun

I woke up at 5 am to go watch the sunrise this morning here in Miami Beach, but the sun never came. I still walked around and took some cool photos, the sky was amazing and the ocean was really still. I didn’t get to see the sun come up but I still got a beautiful morning.
