Essays and Photographs from the Heart and the Mind of a Solitary Observer Adrift in a Beautiful, Insane World
My Words
Writing has always been therapeutic for me through the entire range of my emotions and experiences. As I share them here, take them for whatever they're worth to you. Maybe they'll inspire you, maybe they'll piss you off, and maybe you'll leave wondering why I've wasted your time. Regardless, I'm setting them free in the universe.
My Images
My eye has always been drawn to a wide variety of subjects ranging from classic portraiture to beautiful scenery to minutae to ruin porn.
Images are cheap now, some of them aren't even real. Still, I keep creating them in my mind as I travel around. If I have a camera, I will try and capture them. Those images, coupled with the memories they hold, are very real to me.
“Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever… It remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything.”
— Aaron Siskind
