Falmouth, Jamaica
Apart from the usual people trying to extort money I found the people of Jamaica very welcoming and friendly. I went out to shoot some images for my on going ‘strangers project’. On the basis and idea of understanding the place better. Met some interesting people and made some great captures.

This guy started talking to me. A Cuban. Very clever man.
Chilling out
Hope you liked. More to come from the same place in the next few months 🙂
Cocoa beach, Florida
Last minute and unexpected I was on a flight to Orlando. With a day free I went out on search of new experiences and pictures to be taken. So I walked a few miles down the beach to see what I could find.
It was a nice pier to take a walk on. Loads of Locals fishing..and actually catching a lot.
It is very easy for me to get bored of the beach fast. So off I go again on search for all things ‘local’. In the end I ended up smoking a cigar in a cigar shop with a load of locals to that area. In the end staying there a few hours talking about everything from politics to life itself. It was happy as I know I had a genuine experience that day. There is not a better way to understand a place then understand the people who inhabit it.
Chris below worked in the shop having a vast knowledge of his products. His family were originally from Cuban decent. Someone who I will definitely be going back to visit in the next 6 months.
John the republican ex vietnam war veteran. Plus the many other war zones and professions to his list. Interesting conversation with all of his experience and worldly knowledge.
Much love from Jamaica
