This photo is hot! Share it!

Series of foto´s entitled, ¨Corridor kids¨. Taken in an area of Toronto, Canada, know as the Jane & Finch Corridor. A highly troubled area with drug dealings and all things associated with that culture. At the time I was looking 2 find a more postive and uplifting vibe in the area due 2 all the negativity associated with the hood.

By the way Mitra this foto was never realized in the digital era, it goes that far back. It was photographed on film, either HP 5 or TRI-X pushed to 800 ASA. What I used in bulk all the time back then...
