Street Photography nominee

The following street photos represent scenes from neighborhoods in Los Angeles and one from San Fransisco's Chinatown. I am recent college graduate and a photographer based in Los Angeles. I moved there four years ago and took an interest in the various ethnic enclaves that make Los Angeles a mosaic of class and cultural diversity. I see street photography as a way to connect with the neighborhoods and people in a community and show the slices of life there that people may feel in commmon. The world is a fragmented place. Photography connects us to one another.
