In October of 2005 I lost power for two weeks because of the Hurricane that passed through Miami, I needed internet access so I started going to the library downtown. I noticed a lot of attractive, if a bit disheveled, young men panhandling and selling all kinds of things around the Cultural Center which is where the library is located. I started talking to them and inviting them to have lunch with me. One day I bought a disposable camera and took a few photos to add to my hurricane photos. I eventually bought a digital camera and continued to take photos of my new friends. In April of 2007 I started uploading some of these photos on Flickr. Comments and constructive criticism are very welcome. I am way over 18.

    "This is definitely one of the most original and interesting photostreams on Flickr. It challenges us to see the sexiness of people we might otherwise not even look at. It is a poweful social statement."

    "I travel endlessly online and yet to find a single person that is as creative with a carmera on and about just real life on the "Streets of Miami"

    You work is so unique and interesting, I hope we can generate much more interest in the future to draw attention to the plight of our inner cities! We spend billions to rebuild Iraq, yet the cost of this war has increase drug use among our young soldiers and America control the output of the poppy-seed and herion onto the world scene! If you or I grew drugs and distribute it, we would be locked up for ever! But this administration is guilty of just such a matter! The next generation shall arrive and we are seeing the true effects here on the streets of America!

    Phillip capture these images everyday in Angel, Omar and Cano! Very deep and beautiful photos of a hard life where death is very real! So think about these guys when you give to United Ways, Salvation Army or St.Vincent DePaul! Lets stop locking people up for pointless crimes and spend the money on drug treatment and education!

    Thank You Phillip! Quality Work "TRIPLE AAA Viewspoints!"

    "Phillips work is by far classical. I have been encouraging Phillip to try his best to get these published or even displayed in a gallery show. I am a new fan of his, but will be for years to come I hope. The way he captures these men is like taking us into an area that most people might fear to visit, and Phillip goes even futher. His friendships with these latino men, create a level of comoftablity that really shows in the end result of the photographs. Every photo tells a story, and each photo is a journey into a life we might never have known about without Phillips work. One of the absolute, hands-down, best photographers I have ever seen in my life! And one day, I hope to meet you Phillip, because you really do inspire me!! Keep rocking!"
