SPECIAL PROJECT: WASHINGTON DC IN THE COVID-19 ERA
A full moon fills the night sky on July 4th
There is no more alien and unique landscape on the planet Earth. What it lacks in human interaction, it makes up for in curious and friendly wildlife greeters. The voyage across the Drake Passage can range from eerily calm or the most distressing water on the planet — from 30 ft. swell to smooth sailing and back again. However, once you arrive there is no calmer or more pristine destination offered. Go. Now. Before its too late.
These photos were taken in February of 2016 departing from Ushuaia, Argentina, crossing the Drake Passage, and landing at various points along the Antarctic Peninsula, finally grounding below the Arctic Circle before turning back.
Simply put, the most inspirational and awe evoking locality.
Serving in the White House was one of the honors of my life and a privilege that still feels like a dream, not to mention endlessly empowering for a guy who started knocking on doors as an enthusiastic volunteer on Barack Obama's 2008 campaign. At the Office of Public Engagement, I was able to play a small role in helping to further the progressive vision of America and its working men and women every day. I took a few photos along the way — as anyone would.
2018 has been an amazing and brutal year of travel. I wanted to post a new album that simply captures photos from the air. All taken from normal flying routes, I hope to share the awe inspiring experience that is simply keeping your window shade open while flying across this wonderfully diverse country. Some of this album, in earnest, is an exploration of shape size and color using a natural canvas. Hope you enjoy it!
Morocco is full of some of the most vibrant colors, smells, and people you can meet in this world. These photos were taken on an April 2018 trip that spanned from the coast to Fes to the middle Atlas Mountains.
The nation's capital has so much more to offer than a political divide. It is a beautiful city built on order and structure, and owes most, if not all, of its culture and color to the vibrant and diverse community that made the District what it is. The Rome of its time, it continues to build and thrive.
In the "Land of Smiles" and "Same same but different," colors and culture are king. On this January 2017 trip, I juxtaposed the vibrant and chaotic nature of Bangkok, Thailand's crown jewel, with the serene and laid back environment of Chiang Mai in northern Thailand.
For me, New England will always be home — and it shows in my photos Taken spanning many years spanning Boston's historic Freedom Trail to the endless landscapes of New Hampshire and Maine, New England has it all within driving distance.
Half of my heritage stems from this small island in the middle of the Mediterranean. Its a beautiful rustic place filled with a gritty and tireless people. It feels like home, in a way.
Cambodia is marked by an ancient society and a resilient people that continue to live in the shadow of their history. Angkor Wat and its sister temples tower over the horizon, engulfing a culture of family and powerful food.
