David Flynn was born in Chile and lived in many countries all over South and Central America. Many years ago, he studied Latin American History & Journalism in the US, and went on to get his masters in advertising and marketing. He spent around 20-25 years in this field, with a focus on the Hispanic market. This clearly transitions into his photography, as most of his subject matter depicts Latin American countries, and the people who live there.
Danza de Amor, Peru
This image depicts a child dancing the “Dance of Love” situated on the upper part of Colca Canyon (which is the deepest canyon known to man).
Dos con sus cafés, Colombia
Flynn said “the smell of roasted coffee fights for attention with the scent of flowers in the main square” and that Colombia IS coffee.
Old man in a doorway. Hotel Azul, Nicaragua
Flynn got the consent of the hotel to be there the whole day. He got over 200 shots in, but this was the last photo during that session.
Downtown Jardín, Colombia
Child in a doorway, Nicaragua
Flynn describes it as a “humble home” due to its lack of ornate furnishings.
Boy walking, Colombia
The hallway pushed the viewer so far back, and the dim lighting added to a sense of isolation
Bike picks up cardboard to recycle, Nicaragua
I enjoyed the markings on the walls more than the main subject matter.
Neon car passes through El Laborío, Nicaragua
I enjoyed the juxtaposition of this high tech car next to a run down house. The green stands out a lot compared to the muted reds and browns.
Taller, Colombia
I was intrigued by the lack of color variation. I think the lighting is interesting as it fades to a darker shadow in the background.
Hombre con sombrero. Colombia
The aerial perspective was an interesting point of view since it flattens the the sidewalk and road- minimizing it to be mere pattern.
