No doubt my favorite places to be when I go anywhere is where there is lots of people, (crazy people), I mean what better way to get to know the place by observing the people right? NYC Subways is no different, I can spend hrs down there, its like another world. I actually did, sometimes staying until 3am, thats when the freaks come out. This are my favorite photos from the streets and Subways of NYC from my last trip there last month. NYC Street Photography, gotta love it.Check out my Street Photography Tips Here. Spread the love people.

Homeless Portraits.
I have always been intrigued by people. I always find my self talking to all types, but homeless people intrigue me the most. I want to know what happened, how did they get to where they are. At one point they were somebody’s little bundle of joy right? I often go to the beach and hang out with them, some are really sick and some are completely normal, they simply gave up or could not overcome an obstacle in their life.
It is amazing when you start talking to them you realize they are just like you and me, nothing different, they want to be loved, understood and hugged from time to time. In this project I wanted to capture their soul by looking beyond their eyes with my camera. Next time you see a homeless person dont be so quick to judge and disregard them. Lend them a hand instead…
Please keep checking back as this is an on going project and please help me spread the love. . .

The famous New York City Grand Central Station, this is actually a very photographed place, if you have ever been here then you know why. If you are ever in NYC take a cab to this place its really cool, not only to photograph but just to see. I was waiting for a flash mob but it never happened…Happy Saturday peeps. Let me know what you think…

Street photography-Man In White
I’ve been doing lots of street photography lately, working on another crazy project and I must say it is so much fun. Unscripted, on the fly, crazy, spontaneous and simply interesting. Its kind of crazy to go out there and get so close to people because you never know how they are going to react. Walking up to someone and getting close takes some (you know what) not only that, but you only get one shot to get it right. I was about 24 inches away from this mans face, he didn’t seem to mind, though I have had some crazy experiences (a homeless man chased after me with a 2×4 a while back). Here is a shot from the other night. Enjoy…
