Recently I’ve started to get back to my roots began to shot some black and white street photography. This time around I’ve been using my iPhone which is always in my pocket. The great thing about it is that people are so used to seeing people staring into their phones that it’s very easy to shoot on the street and no one takes notice. This surreal image was shot on the north corner of Union Square Park at 17th Street after rain storm.

I was going back through all of my iPhone shots the other day and found this that I had totally forgotten about. This is one of the very first shots that I ever took on an iPhone. I just happen to catch this at the right moment. I love the light and love the mood.

I saw this at the Crown Fountain in Millennium Park in Chicago. I like the way the figure seems to emerge from the falling water . . . I especially love the hands.
