I Must Leave
A street photographer's accidental journey of self-discovery while shooting travel photos in enchanting Oaxaca, Mexico
Jose D. Flores, Jr. (Joe) took up photography in late 2015 as complementary therapy for a traumatic surgical procedure that almost took his life. He plunged head-in to the challenging genre of street shooting to overcome his introversion.
"....On this photographic journey, I have met my other self along the path and found peace and comfort as the two halves seamlessly merged into being.
This work looks beyond the illusory straight horizon and empowers my heart and mind to cross the line into infinity, into the void. I hope that you too, my companion planetary pilgrim, find your bearings from these images as well.
However, be not afraid of the unknown."
