Everyone is convinced they love their pets more than the world, and they care for them with the utmost respect. However, i’ve never seen so many sad dogs as I did in the city. So many puppies tied to poles for hours at a time, looking helpless and lonely. Most pet owners will only show the photos where they are happily cuddling their pet, but not the parts where they abandon the poor thing.

I took this picture in San Francisco on the Mission. This man in front of my car was riding his motorcycle while blasting music and had a big smile on his face. I immediately took out my camera to capture this moment of internal serenity.

My interpretation of anonymous correlates with being alone. When I think of the word “anonymous”, I think of someone who is engulfed with loneliness, hiding from others. I took this photo during pouring rain in the begginging of January. It was almost one in the morning, and I was the only one out on the roads. This picture depicts anonymity to me because I felt I was isolated from the rest of the world when photographing this empty road.

I edited this picture using different color photo frames in photoshop. I also played with the saturation of the picture. This photograph is part of my Rain Collection.

I found these wires on a brick wall in an alleyway in San Francisco. These wires caught my eye because although they are miscellaneous and dirty, the way they are placed reminds me of art. The loops in the thick rubber strings draws your eye, and every time you look around the picture, you find something new to analyze. The graffiti also makes the picture more interesting by adding pops of color.

During my trip to New York over Thanksgiving, I look this picture at the Metropolitan Museum of Art which was incredible. To edit the photo, I used magenta and yellow tones on the highlights, and blue tones on the shadows.
