Financial District from Battery Park, New York City, New York, USA.

 

On assignment for Changi Class Magazine.

A cold, cold, cold evening of shooting from Battery Park. Did I mention it was cold? It was cold. Very cold. Still, you can't waste skies like this, not when said skies mix so well with the ambient light of skyscraper infinity.

 

I was lucky to have Jahrensy and Damian along for the ride on this NYC adventure. See what they have to say about it.

Guilty as charged!

Right in front of my nose, huge buildings, occupied by hundreds of families.

Downtown San Paulo, Brazil.

Few blocks from the City Hall, the Stock Exchange, the Central Bank among so many other fundamental, worthy and basic institutions.

In just one of the buildings, 475 families occupies 27 unfinished floors.

Kids play and run.

Clotheslines on the outside of the building, without any protection from falling down and in front of the entire city.

Windows, with breathtaking views, of one of the biggest and most populated cities on the Planet, made of compensated wood or sticks, even at the 27th floor.

People that use strength and organization to impose their reality, to a society that doesn’t care to listen.

Guilty as charged!

Devotees taken on a long exposure with the camera moving around to create what I called "color" trails.

 

-------

An estimated 15 million devotees and tourists joined the annual "traslacion" or the procession of the Black Nazarene. The event commemorates the "translacion" or the moving of the image solemnly to the minor basilica.

 

Devotees are determined to touch, wipe and hold the image of the Black Nazarene because of their deep belief and devotion to the image. Even if the devotees are used to crossing the old route, they followed the new, prescribed route in the end. Like most of the incidents in the past years, there were a number of incidents of suffocation, minor injuries, cuts and bruises--a far cry from what should be a solemn, holy event. —

A couple of days ago The New York Times ran the text from a commencement speech George Saunders gave at Syracuse University to its Class of 2013. In a word, his advice to this year's graduates was to try to be kinder...less selfish. We should all (myself included!) aspire to such heights; I thought it was a nice speech. 6thfloor.blogs.nytimes.com/2013/07/31/george-saunderss-ad...

 

I've always been fond of this candid portrait I took of George Saunders several years ago. I think he looks like a kind person here -- and from everything I could tell that night, he seemed to be one. Saunders' site

On their footpath to the North of Greece, refugees are looking for places to sleep. They break in empty housing containers in camps like here at Filippiada, located in a remote region in Epirus.

 

Since there is no police and no security staff from afternoon until morning, inhabitants of the 260-people-camp have no means to close the camp to strangers. "We heard them in the night. We could tell they were from Syria and Iraq. They had little cans of tear gas, so we were afraid to talk to them", a young Afghan father of two little children says.

 

The next morning, the burglars are gone to continue their way to the border to Albania or Macedonia, disappearing in the forests and mountains - they are using the new "Balkan route".
