Apr. 8 - Javits Center - Manhattan, NY, USA

Jim Press, is Chrysler's Vice Chairman and co-President. I photographed Jim during the 2009 New York Auto Show. Just a few hours earlier he had presented the Fiat 500 and a new Cherokee to the members of the media. I found him in the Chrysler section by himself and asked him if I can photograph him. Unlike most executives, especially auto executives, he was very nice and agreed for a quick photograph. I am not sure what model car was on display behind him.

Apr. 5 - Crosby Street - Manhattan, NY, USA

Homeless. A long winter and a slow start to spring brought me out to the streets of Manhattan during a nice sunny day in search of a subject. Immediately, I find a homeless person sleeping in SoHo, one of the most expensive neighborhoods in all of the U.S. Perhaps a sign of the times and the reality of life.

Apr. 3 - Canal Street - Manhattan, NY USA

I didn't get her name, but I don't want to call her "anonymous" either. She was one of the only street vendors out today. It was raining hard just an hour before and it started raining shortly after I took her picture.
