Thanks for visiting. This website features my photography, writing, and a bit about me.

PHOTOS

Here is a random sample of my photos. Visit my galleries for many more.


<p>The stairwell as seen from the courtyard of this modest hotel in San Telmo. It was my temporary home when I moved to Buenos Aires in 1997 and started my search for a flat. I love this picture.</p>
<p>A paraglider over the Langkofel (Sassolungo) massif in the Dolomites. <br /></p>
<p>Shot with Pentax 645N, 645 FA 80-160, Cinestill 800.<br /></p>
<p>Empty kegs provide impromptu seating as the night wears on in Dublin's Dame Lane.</p>
<p>A view en route to Christoffelberg, Curaçao's highest peak. While only 371 metres high, it is still something of a strenuous climb in the Caribbean heat.</p>
<p>A Poblana passes an old truck and graffiti promoting the centre-left PRD party.</p>
<p>An Apennine (or Abruzzan) chamois surveys the surroundings. Their dwindling numbers have been boosted by the safe haven of the Gran Sasso national park.<br /></p>
<p>Posters in Montevideo denounce current military figures for their role in the country's 1973-1985 military dictatorship: <em>These are torturers. Our memory won't forget, our dignity won't forgive.</em></p>
<p>A figure crosses the Ponte de la Balote by night.<br /></p>
