THERE ARE THOSE IMAGES THAT ARE CAPTURED THAT EXPLAIN THE CLIMATE, THE SITUATION, THE EMOTIONS OF THE MOMENT.  THAT IS HOW I DESCRIBE JOURNALISTIC AND DOCUMENTARY STYLE PHOTOGRAPHY.  THE SHOTS THAT TELL A STORY, A STRUGGLE, A PASSION.

 

 

I WAS SHOOTING IN THE CITY ONE DAY, AND JUST BY CHANCE I CAPTURED THIS.  PRESENT DAY, WHEN TECHNOLOGY AND AMERICA RULES THE MODERN WORLD.  THERE ARE STILL LITTLE ELDERLY ASIAN LADIES DIGGING FOR GOLD IN THE FORM OF CANS AND BOTTLES. 

 

     

 

 

 

 

 

PHONE CALL.....

"WE'RE GOING TO RAISE THE LIBERATION FLAG ON CITY HALL PLAZA, COME CAPTURE IT."

IS WHAT I WAS TOLD.  I WAS ON MY WAY TO THE DNC AT THE FLEET CENTER.

TORN WITH WHAT TO DO, I DID WHAT I ONLY COULD. 

CAPTURE IMPORTANCE, BE PART OF HISTORY, AND LEARN VALUABLE LESSONS.

THE LEADERS LISTENED CAREFULLY SUPPORTING THE CAUSE.

 

 

 

  MANY WERE CURIOUS, OTHERS SO OUTRAGED THAT THEY TRIED TO BRING DISTRUBANCE.  PEACE HAS NO EARS FOR IGNORANCE.  THE BALD GUY TRIED HIS BEST....ENTERED THE STATION, ONLY TO RETURN ATTEMPT A DISTRACTING MOMENT.  WE HAD A REASON TO BE THERE....WE WERE THERE TO SEE THE RED, THE BLACK, AND THE GREEN.

THIS WAS A POWERFUL DAY.  I HAD NEVER BEEN TO A DEMONSTRATION, A PUBLIC MEETING FOR GOOD.  I WAS SO PROUD TO BE THERE, TO BE A PART OF SOMETHING THAT CHANGED ME, AND OTHERS....IF ONLY FOR THE MOMENT.
