As you can probably tell by these images, I'm not in Germany anymore. My big trip (around the world) has started. There are new places I'm planning to visit, but for now I'm enjoying my old stomping grounds in New Jersey and New York. Visiting here is always quite emotional to me as I have lived here for so long and had such an amazing time. Luckily I still have friends here who always welcome me almost like a family member.One spontaneous idea I had on a rainy morning was to photograph Coney Island in the rain. By the time I got there however, the sun was shining. Because people were not very busy, I decided to take some portraits.
