Love
All we need is love right? This one morning I was down at the "New New Maxwell Street" flea market in Chicago a few weeks back. Seeing that white teddy bear wrapped in cellophane with the word "love" stitched on the bottom of its paw just jumped out at me. Its one of those things that when you see and you go, "how can I make an interesting photograph of that?" I made a few different versions, but this one works that best. It gives perspective, those people hanging out talking to each other, the guy with his hand on the woman's shoulder....Yet the bear is just sitting there waiting to be picked up and shown the love that we all need....

Chicago EL
I for some reason like to create chaos in my images and this one is no exception. What drew to me making this image were those crazy abstract magenta shadows that are happening on the train tracks. Everything else seemed to fall into place from all the lines in the building in the background to all the lines and colors going on in the train entrance. It almost feels like some sort of a action movie, the calm chaos before the real action starts happening.....
