Nice and Cozy
Catching up from last summer. I just keep documenting streets and people around me that make my life worthwhile, without really thinking too much about what to do with all these photos. I like the freedom to express myself through photography and I’ll keep doing it as long as it keeps me in the flow.
All photos are Tri-X at 800 developed in XTOL 1:1, 10:30mins at 21°C, shot with Leica M6 and 35mm Summicron ASPH. Grab some coffee and enjoy!
NYC Pride day. The parade was too crowded so I decided to walk along the streets of Greenwich Village
which I think is the best way to capture the spirit

Watching the fire
Came across the legendary Harvey Stein in the crowd. We had a nice chat and he showed me his Leica M4, which was pretty much in this condition.
Looks like I ruined their selfie

It’s always cheesy and insincere when big brands try to take advantage of these events, but this trio was just too cute to not feature
