4 - 24 - 18  Went to Brooklyn today to photograph Ray in his apartment, which was remodeled by him.  Very creative and beautiful work that he did.  He's exceptionally spiritual and immediately one can feel his warmth and kindness.  He has a dog that he has a close bond with that is very loving and special.
He went to his neighborhood gym before my arrival, where he works out a few times a week and it definitely shows.  A cut body, good abs and eats healthy, too. He had coconut rice in a slow cooker and in another, had a selection of vegetables, which he offered to me, but I choose the ice-cold water with lemon.  Very refreshing.  Enjoyed our conversation and of course, photographing him.  A very wonderful person.
