Anguilla, In Black & White

After spending my vacation in Anguilla, many people would think that I'd be upset to return to gloomy New York. The reality is I am actually excited to be home, but don't get it twisted, I'd rather not return to the rain. Aside from missing my daughter, one of the main reasons I am excited about returning is that I feel refreshed and ready to get back to business.
I did a lot of thinking while out there and I've decided to spend more time refining my photographic technic and getting more involved in film making. Don't be surprised when you see a music video or a theatrical release directed by D-Nice.

Dude,
Your pictures are very nice. After seeing the pics, I had to read more about what the artist had to say in blogs. Wow, this is the same guy that my older brother had me listening to when I was so young. Keep doing what you do man.
Peace,
D

Greetings King,
Beautiful and very professional pictures!
If you would like to experience another beautiful paradise My family and I have a family home in Ghana and you are invited. The beaches are amazing and the land is rich! We have been deceived about the motherland. You would be a perfect photographer to expose the truth about our true homeland. Just food for thought Peace King.

You got the photography technique on lock. Reminds of CARTEL who used to do the JIVE records album sleeves back in the 90s. Be well.

Your talent as a photographer is undeniable! I tell you that often. Perhaps, you should think about compiling your fave pix and creating a "must have" coffee table book of your repertoire. It's HOT, Derrick!
Love ya,

Beautiful...can't wait to go and visit. I really love your pictures. They seem to take me through different emotions. I like seeing the old skool rappers and what they look like now. I still play their music and my kids like to listen to them too.

Remember me when you need crew. I'm down.
I am having to start from scratch re-editing this short screenplay (Alabama Lawman) that I shot this past spring 'cause it needs to be better than it is...needs a fine cut before I send out DVD copies...but I will have one with your name on it asap so you can decide based on some of my work whether or not I am someone you'd like to bring on board with your productions.

It's so unusual to see pics of paradise in black and white.. without the turquoise blues, sunny yellows and brights I get a completely different impression, somthing deeper and more mysterious... You captured a moment. How wonderful it is to travel, escape and see the world... we all need to do that, thank you for documenting & sharing your experiences.. it's an inspiration! Oh and of course the pictures are really fantastic.
