Meet Roger by Keith T.*

Roger is a Pakistani immigrant who owns the local newstand/grocery/mini-supermarket.
In many ways, he is typical of the American Dream, where ultimately, everyone here came from somewhere else.

Miguel...I did not try black and white (but will give it a shot) - one of the things that attracted me to the setting (I asked him to pose in this spot) was the riot of color around the counter...thanks for the comment....Keith

Keith,

I like this image as it captures the essence of the person in its environment. I wonder how it would look like in B/W. The color are nice but B?W could be really powerful, did you try?

Great job,


Miguel
