New York City

You cannot stop New York City.

No wiser words written on a souvenir magnet.

Picture
Even after countless visits, New York has served as one of my favorite places to photograph.
It is a place that really fuels inspiration. And, nothing can stop it.

Picture
During this recent visit, I was able to see and notice more.

Ladies selling skin to somehow find fame.

Picture
Picture
People wearing funky wardrobe hoping to score some tips.
Picture
This guy, making ends meet by selling flowers.
How ironic is it that the saddest man, sells such happy beautiful flowers?
Picture
And a man hopelessly waiting for a miracle.
Picture
I am glad I also saw a hopeful side like these strangers united by friendly competition.
Picture
And, this guy sharing his passion for books.
Picture
This one, waiting patiently for the next customer.
Picture
Then, this one happily reaping the rewards of his work.
Picture
In busy cities like these, there are so many stories to tell.
I love having the chance to share their stories through my photographs.
I cannot wait to do that during my next big adventure.
