For me traveling is a must to keep my eye sharp. when a photog is traveling everything is fresh and new,you are constantly looking and framing shots in your mind. This image comes from a extended stay in a NY while studying under the great Jay Maisel. Walked 88 miles in eight days took 4500 images and had a blast. Like a kid in a candy store I searched every back alley, bar, church, anything that pulled me. The people on the street was the real draw for me and interacting was spiritually filling me up.
