2016 wasn’t the most prolific year for taking photos, but I still got in a few good shots. Let’s jump right in. Selfie, huh? I don’t take many, but I really love this one. I think it has more to do with Ollie’s expression, but this was a genuine moment caught with my iPhone. I’ll...Read More

Photography to me is catching a moment which is passing, and which is true. Jacques-Henri Lartigue 2015 was a slow photography year for me. It was a year of immense change and my focus was in different areas. Which is quite OK. I’ve been recapping my years in photography for some time now. And 2015...Read More

For those of you that don’t know me, I’m especially fond of photography, awkwardness, science fiction and geeky stuff. And if you do know me, then you probably guessed that I was at Gen Con today. It’s the perfect blend of all of the previously mentioned fondness in an environment that is completely positive, open,...Read More

This post is a complete rip off from Gear Patrol’s essay titled, The Best Shave I Ever Had. I’m a big fan of their site and as I read this essay, it got me thinking about the wet shaves I’ve had in Palermo, Capri, Kusadasi, Indianapolis, Goa, and Mumbai.

In 1997, I walked into a painting class in Cavanaugh Hall on IUPUI’s campus. I took my seat and looked to my right. I met Dan Wonderly. First of all, his last name is Wonderly. Not Superbly, or Greatly or Ironically. Wonderly – possibly the greatest surname in the history of our species. Dan and...Read More

Flickr has again created the yearly group, Your Best Shot. Members of the community are invited to submit their best shot of 2011. Here are 10 photos I’m considering – not sure which one I’ll pick, but please feel free to chime in. Sit back and enjoy. Mostly pictures here on out. Thanks! 1) Some...Read More

My neighborhood is rather special. I live behind Kurt Vonnegut’s High School. And like his books, the neighborhood provides lots of stories – funny, real, sometimes sad. I often pass the same woman selling bootleg DVD’s. I’ve chased thieves in bare feet, after they broke into my car. People have knocked on our door in...Read More
