Impressions: West Indian American Day Carnival 2014


Photos by Eddie Pearson

LargeUp has been documenting the West Indian American Day Carnival for years, and yesterday’s edition was no different. This year, Brooklyn-based photographer Eddie Pearson set out to Eastern Parkway—along with a few million fellow revelers. We’ll be showcasing some up-close-and-personal street style snaps Eddie took on the road shortly but, in the meantime, here’s a few favorites from the big parade.
