Street: NY & DC

So these are some "street", photo journalistic shots taken over the past few weeks that I have spent in NY & DC for the Invisible Children event. I was in D.C. on the 22nd & 23rd right after I graduated along with my friend Josh Lopez: http://joshlopezphoto.com/ who graduated with me from Hallmark Institute of Photography We drove from Turners Falls, MA all the way down to D.C. in a day to attend "How it Ends". A rally effort to end the longest running war in Africa. It was the largest lobbying day in the history of the United States of America for an African affair & I am damn proud to have been a part of it. To find out more on how you can try to help stop the longest running war in Africa go to http://www.invisiblechildren.com/home.php . And the last few days I was in NY visiting a few friends and trying to network....
