Historically, New York is the mecca of architectural photography in the United States.
Many great photographers shot its skyline, its streets, its plazas: Berenice Abbott, Margaret Bourke-White, André Kertész, Paul Strand, Alfred Stieglitz, Edward Steichen, to name just a few.
Chicago has the wonderful work of John Szarkowski.
It is about time to give some attention to the Magic City. Somebody has to do something.

You are correct Cesar. Our magic city has…. magic!
And you have been able to capture its magic to the fullest.
In your amazing photographs Miami looks at its best.
Congratulations!

Cesar,
I enjoyed your Miami photos very much particularly #4 and 8. The contrast between old and new Brickell is striking and I love the painterly quality that you achieved in #4.

Thank you, Diane.
It is amazing that mix of old and new things in downtown areas in general.
This is a thing I plan to explore more in the future.

Cesar, you never cease to amaze how much progress you have made since we met at the Bakehouse Art Complex.
What a professional and impressive site.
A pleasure, indeed, to have viewed your website’s visual treasures and the upward evolution of your much talented photogrpahic career.
