Well today was our first day at the PDN Photoplus Exp in NYC, Jacob Javitz Center... I was able to take a walk with photographer Ruddy Roye from Brooklyn as he taught us his approach on capturing portraits in the city. It was a great experience and something that I plan on doing again. Enjoy a few images from today!! Thanks!

Soy CubanoThis image of a cuban homeless man really showed some feeling. He was hesitant in letting me take his picture but im glad i was able to capture this.

Pow right in the kisser...I really enjoyed this shot of Officer "?" standing next to the Ralph Kramden statue....had some comedic value to it..

I'm LateThis gentleman just arrived to the USA to visit his daughter in NYC...he didnt say much but i really love this shot.

Got Smoke..Didnt get any info on this man....but i loved the way the light was hitting his face...
