Humans of Quiapo

September 2, 2012 by Sandra Dans

Inspired by Brandon Stanton’s ubiquitous and wonderful project, Humans of New York, i walked around my own city and took my own portraits under the watchful eye of Mr Luis Liwanag.

People are fun!

    Congratulations, Sandra! I heard the good news:) By the way, I love this latest set of photographs–you’ve caught the soul of the city! The fashionista in tights and rainboots has attitude bursting through her shorts. I can almost hear the hairdresser’s cry–gotta be ngo-ngo!@#! The one with the sampaguita vendor is just lovely–that gorgeous blue pops out against the muted church facade and the unexpected splash of color provided by the bike in the background completed the serenity of the scene. My favorite black and white shot was the one with the guy eating alongside pants hanging all in a row…just another creative juxtapositioning of subjects that you are so good at. I wonder how many people passed all these by and never paid attention?
