The truth is that it is not a place that paints a person, but a person a place. Famous photographer Jasper James proves this in his new series of photographs "People and Places".
Jasper James specializes in portraits of people and travel. And so he decided to combine these two of his creative passions into one. He created portraits of cities based on the portraits of the people inhabiting these cities.
The works from the "People and Places" series can easily recognize the world's largest cities - New York, Beijing, Tokyo, Hong Kong and others. And the soul of these cities is not at all their skyscrapers, shopping centers and other buildings, but the people living in them.
And it is the people in the photographs of Jasper James who hang over the megalopolises, showing who is the boss here.
