New Contributor, Leonardo Torres

My name is Leonardo Torres, 31 years old. I was born in Jalisco, Mexico and i came to this country at age 2 to get away from a violent father. I was raised in the city of Compton. My mother and I would make trips to downtown LA all the time and I always dreamt of capturing all aspects of this beautiful city on film both good and the bad. I see it all as good, and love to capture shots that people usually turn their heads to.
