In this captivating ICM (Intentional Camera Movement) photograph, the bustling commuters of Grand Central Station are depicted in a mesmerising dance of motion and colour. It's as if time itself has come alive within the grandeur of this iconic transportation hub.

As streams of people rush through the station's vast concourse, the deliberate camera movement blurs their figures into streaks of vibrant colour. Each streak represents a moment in time, a fleeting instant within the rush of daily life. It's a visual symphony of movement and energy, where the individual stories of countless commuters blend together into a collective narrative.

This photograph encapsulates the essence of urban life—a constant, synchronised rhythm of motion, where people from all walks of life come together and part ways, each with their own destination and purpose. It's a celebration of the vitality of the city, where time never stands still, and the journey is as important as the destination.

The City Blues Collection

Photographing New York, a city of immense contrast, with its relentless pace, towering skyscrapers, and melting pot of cultures. As a visitor, I find myself drawn to its energy and complexity, and on my recent trip, I wanted to capture the essence of the city through my photographs. The blue and yellow tones in my series represent the struggle and the hope that are so integral to the New York experience. The city is notorious for its brutal competitiveness, but it is also a place where dreams can come true with hard work and determination.

Through my photo editing, I wanted to depict the multifaceted nature of New York, showcasing both its gritty, urban side alongside its shining moments of triumph. Each photo in the series tells a story about the city, using colour to reflect the various shades of the New York experience. From the cold blues that symbolise the challenges evident in the city to the warm yellows that represent the promise of success, these photos are a testament to the resilience and diversity of New York.

Whether you're a native New Yorker or a visitor like myself, these photos offer a glimpse into the city's many layers. They serve as a reminder that in a place as complex as New York, success and struggle often go hand in hand and that the journey to the top is rarely a straightforward one.

As a photographer, I believe that photography is a powerful medium for capturing the spirit of a place, photography as an art form has a wonderful ability to tell stories that transcend borders and cultures. The City Blues collection of blue and yellow photos from New York offers a unique perspective on the city, highlighting its complexity and the endless opportunities it presents.
