Another visit to the Hirshhorn, another series of re-appropriated art.

Photographing Sara in front of a projection. Our eyes didn’t see what the camera did - the rapidfire flashes of color that made up the muted skintone of the film.

One room featured a blue glow, giving the space an indiscernable depth. There were footprints leading back, […]

Fall is easily my favorite season. Not only is it the birthday of one of the greatest men to ever grace this little blue planet (me), but the crisp air and warm colors always bring me back to growing up in the foothills of the Appalachians. While the city is no substitute, it’s nice to […]

Sara and I returned from a bit of a vacation to Florida, visiting my best friend from college. It was a weekend of  science and partying (those two not mutually exclusive, of course).
We were waiting to be picked up at Miami International, looking for Adam in the distance. Moments later, we realized we were actually […]

After two months of settling, I’m glad to have rediscovered routine. I’ve begun a new job, I’ve settled into a new home, and I’m finally able to refocus on the more calming aspects of the everyday.

The stores all have their name equivalent in Chinese characters; along with the intricate arch, these serve as […]

I’ve been uber busy lately, with big life changes on the way, hence the lightness of posting.
This is another picture taken on that fine Summer evening a couple weeks ago at the World War II Memorial. Actually, it’s several pictures, stitched together through magic. Dark magic.
