Another year cheating death! How do I do it you ask? Well some secrets I’ll never tell. But I will say I had a great birthday surrounded by the people I love. One of the highlights was an incredible cake made in the shape of a Leica M8 by Elizabeth Wolff. Here are some images [...] Door. New Orleans, August 2011 Some people would find it strange that I am not in New York for the tenth anniversary of September 11th. I don’t. I spent seven straight days photographing the attacks and their aftermath. That was enough for me. Lower Manhattan. September 11th, 2001 What I remember most about that [...] View Let’s Get Lost Summer Roadtrip map in a larger map And…. I’m off! Where you ask? On a summer road trip through the American South.

Each day was a new horizon of possibilities. I still feel that way… Brooklyn, July 2011 I don’t shoot a great deal in the neighborhood that I grew up in but this was too good to pass up.

Here’s another experiment… Memories of things past I’ve always been the kind of person who seems to want to be somewhere other than were he is.
