City Characters

With the right light (and A LOT of patience) you can capture images on the street that look like they were staged in a studio. I like giving an abstract, stylized feel to people existing in an otherwise mundane urban setting. Each image is a mystery meant to spark the imagination, inviting you to create the story of the anonymous figures passing through the frame.

Golden Cityscape (New York)

One of my favorite photos from shooting during the golden hour.I like to do really long exposures and keeping composition simple with a focus on the golden light.

City silhouettes (New York)

I like to separate light and dark to create contrast in silhouette. I do that by looking for possible composition first and then just patient and right moment makes the frame.

Winter' 20 (New York)

Winter of 2019,20 in New York was more of rain than snow but I go a couple of real snow days to go and shoot. There's magic in the air when its snow. People put those big smiles on the face and start acting like kids.

City Shadows (New York,USA)

After Sunrise or just before sunset when the sun is not too far from horizon, the city creates some interesting shadows.

I Like to use a telephoto lens but any focal lengths would work, just need to find your composition. It is all about balancing light and dark tones in your image.
