I’m a lifelong Queens, NY resident for 51 years and I never really thought to photograph the places and things that aren’t as interesting to me because they’re so commonplace. But you gave me food for thought: maybe I should be looking for and photographing those same things but with the mindset of capturing them in a way that accentuates their unique attributes and capturing the feeling of the community through the people in these shots. Btw, I love your golden hour shots and the shadows . The 28mm focal length is one of the primes that I recently purchased but thought about selling because i didn’t know what to do with it, but now you’ve inspired me. Thanks 🙏
Love that! Glad the video inspired you. And right, living around the NY area, it’s so tempting to always look to the iconic areas. There’s many different neighborhoods around NYC that have lots of character and should be photographed
Awesome video. Just visited my friends who moved to Astoria recently. Loved the place. Really enjoyed recognizing some of your shots. Good shots and advice. Thanks
I’ve never lived in Astoria. Heard it’s expensive. I live in woodside but never thought of taking pictures of my neighborhood. I love taking pictures in the city. Anyway, hope one day I will see you taking pictures by the streets of Astoria.
If you can't document in yo own hood gang then that's a problem with yo energy and ability to intergrate yo self. I take pictures on 63rd and Cottage King Drive without no problems. You gotta respect yo hood before you document it.
いい写真だ😀 優しい♥
Thanks 🙏🏼

Great work! It's refreshing to see someone show their work without obsessing over the camera used to get it done.
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!
Love the colors of the ice cream truck shot at 2:10!
Thank you! Was one of my favorites too!

Woodside is great too! Especially Roosevelt Ave. A lot going on there. Definitely go out and take some pictures!
Nice video, and some sick snaps. That one from the skatepark I saw on the Gelatin Labs IG or newsletter is sick. See you around the streets!
Cheers man! And shoutout to Gelatin!
