The heart of Muñoz

Muñoz is a small sleepy town. Everyday I pass by people that show signs of hard work and living life without second thoughts. Life is simple here, from the farmers in the campos to the poorest in the batey. Things are black and white. You do what you can to survive and enjoy while you are able.

Focus on the Eyes

The fundamentals of photography always carry through. I'm teaching basic photography to my students here in the batey and it has me working on myself.
