Impressions: West Indian American Day Carnival 2014


Photos by Eddie Pearson

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