Yoga in the city
Recently my friend Roberto Lim hired me to shoot some yoga photos for his new website. Roberto teaches yoga in Boston and works with Shiva Rea around the world – http://www.somavinyasayoga.net/index.html. He came up to NYC from Boston and we went on a little exploration of Yoga and the city.
The first place I took him to, which is one of my favorite places to shoot in NYC is DUMBO. We couldn’t believe our luck when we stumbled upon this wonderful mural by 303 Collectives depicting Ganesah and different elephants. The message of the mural is that in life, there are obstacles and barriers that are lifted away to result in success, and yoga can aid us in just that.

We also went to the Brooklyn Bridge Park…
Last we went up town to the Flat Iron Building and Roberto showed that he could even keep his calm in the middle of hectic Manhattan traffic.
