My relationship with New York is a romantic one. Like the one of a 12 year old kid and his obsession with the girl next door. I come to New York at least once a year to get away, to get recharged, to get inspired, and most importantly to recharge my creativity.
New York City is a magical place. Everything is happening so fast, and to keep up is nearly impossible. Some days I take it easy by going to get a slice of pizza somewhere, and somedays I can’t stop, I become one with the madness. One thing is for sure, no matter how many times I come to New York, I’m a bit sad to leave, but smile at the thought of coming back. If I can find an excuse to come back, count me in.
Here are a few of my favorite shots from my most recent trip in no particular order.

The Flat Iron Building in New York City.
This is one of the most interesting buildings I have ever seen, undoubtedly my favorite of all times. This building is just awesome, I never get tired of photographing it, I just love it. Such an interesting building from every angle, even from a birds eye view its just amazing. I’ve always wanted to have an office in a building like this, you know it has so much character.
Here is a Black and White of my favorite building in the world. The Flat Iron Building in NYC.

Why should I shoot RAW?
Lots of people always ask me this question and other people always wonder. The answer is simple, when you shoot RAW you have so much more information on your images, if you over expose and image or under expose it you can save it and bring it back to life. You can also do so much more with it in post production, basically you have complete control of your images.
In this video I will show you how to manipulate a completely underexposed image using Lightroom 5. Note that you can do this in just about any editing software out there.

30 days of street photography day 30
The 30 days is here, I leave you with my favorite photo of all times. (Don’t worry I have tons of photos and shoot daily so we are really only getting started). I shot this a while back in New York City on top of the Rock. I was shooting central park and when I turned around to see what was going on behind me, there she was, I quickly snapped a shot and to say it made my day is an understatement.
