Walking the Block
by Jo Ann Santangelo
Walking the Block: Christopher Street, NYC: nightfall manifests an isolated and fabled world of faces—transgenders, queers, prostitutes, drug dealers, pier kids, and curious admirers—all walking the block. Last month my camera and I were welcomed into this night time world. Through a series of photographs, interviews and ambient sound collections, this project will be an in-depth look at Christopher Street's infamous dwellers.

cant believe this only got one vote from me. Perhaps it is a new submission and no one had the chance to vote yet but personally I think this is the most “real” out of all the submissions I have seen so far.
I guess some of them are shot from the hip? I am interested in the combination with the sound collections. But the series also stands very well as it is.
Two or three frames are really full of sauce! Good stuff!Best regards!
Its always nice to see what goes on in other states at night. I’ve taken shots like these and felt so attached to have captured real life through my lens. Big ups Ann, I see the high adrenaline pouring through the pictures.
Awesome series. Tells a very strong story while visually above the bar. Rare talent.
Raw and powerful series! Love it!
Wow! #9 is just an incredible shot-can’t believe she got that…I’m in love with #13
You are amazing!!!
beautiful. makes me want to borrow your eyeballs for a day.
I loved shot # 8. All the faces have such a truth telling expression. Thank you. I have a print of “Eddie” in my studio and it gives me insiration and courage.Good work done with heart.
Powerful images, and so very alive! Well done!
