Today in Harlem

Today was a fairly unusual day for me. A friend asked if I wanted to shoot the late James Brown's last trip to the Apollo Theater and he'd give me an all-access pass to do so. Duh, of course! I imediately had visions of shooting some creepy shot of a lone coffin on the stage.

It's late so I am just going to post one shot right now and another one tomorrow or the next day. Let's just say, I didn't get what I imagined. I'll explain further after I get some rest.

Take pictures.
