Crowds

I was digging around my photographs from Bangladesh and found this one that a good friend of mine took while a group of us were on a field visit during our first month with VSO. The image is stitched together and accurately show just how many people were around us while our bus back to Dhaka stopped for a quick break. We had walked just a few feet away to take some pictures of the nearby river. I was busy making adjustments to my camera when I turned around to see what must have been fifty or more people starring at us. Crowds like this are common thing no matter what the subject of focus is. Traveling just about anywhere in the developing world requires massive amounts of flexibility...and an equal amount of humor.

...That Started It All

The Sunday Best posting

I just returned from one of my favorite spots on earth. Maine is full of countless places you'll have a hard time convincing yourself to get back in the car and leave... this particular one is mine. I got back last night to find an email in my inbox letting me know that a local photography/mutlimedia blog in Portland just posted a slide show submission of my work from my main photo essay I documented while at Salt. Some of the images can be seen on my website but there a a good number I've added in there that are not. To see the slide show simply click here.

I'm in the process of editing and submitting more of my work to a few other outlets in the coming weeks. In the mean time I'm really happy with the one I sent in to The Sunday Best. They are a great blog dedicated towards documenting "ordinary people doing extraordinary things." To learn more about who they are and the work they do click here.

Breaking for this week

The summer here in Maine has been a cold and rainy one. This makes it easy to spend countless hours indoors editing my website and working on getting ready for my next adventure. Given the context of both I'll be on break all this week...hence the short entry for this morning.

I hope to come back next Monday with some great updates and new project links.

A new site (sort of)

After a great semester, a few weeks of rest, and a few of getting things in order I'm happy to say I have up-dated and re-tooled my photography website. The link to it can be found here and on the right hand tool bar option FP Portfolio Page. For best viewing ensure your browser window is as large as you can make it.

Enjoy!

Stay Tuned....

I'm working on pulling together something I think will be a great addition to the blog. If all goes as planned it will be up and running by tomorrow afternoon.
