Another year down. So what has happened? Well the earth shook. The biggest thing in my life this year was the addition of Epiphany(Virginia) and Joy to my household. They moved up here to DC with me. Still adjusting to everything, but it has been fun so far. We’ve seen a lot of the museums [...]
It’s been a year since I got back in the states. It was a good year. I worked with good people, good students and I learned a lot. I am just finishing up moving right now. I am staying in the same building, but moving to a different apartment. I am hoping to save money [...]
Earth Quakes and Hurricanes oh my! Tuesday was my first experience with an earthquake. Started with a rumble like a big truck going by, then everything started to roll. No big damage but it was a weird experience. Everyone flooded outside. Here’s a pic: Saturday was hurricane Irene. Went through DC with wind and rain. [...]
Well, the year has begun. I usually spend some time thinking about what I am going to be doing in the coming year. Haven’t made that list yet, but I’ve been enjoying the year so far. Spent the first weekend with my friend Tim from Doha. He lived in DC for a while, so he [...]
2010 was a year of changes. I started off in Doha, tried to get a job in Chicago, but wound up in DC. I visited North Carolina for the first time. In June I got a chance to visit Joy in Asheville. It was a good trip. I enjoyed the city and it was great [...]
Jon Stewart’s rally inspired me to start a new website. It is called, You Go Then I’ll Go. (yougothenillgo.com) The US has gotten a lot more polarized since I left a couple of years ago. I don’t believe that opposition without compromise solves problems, so I thought I’d highlight some of the middle ground. People [...]
Well things have changed quickly. I am now working at Northwestern’s Medill school in Washington, D.C. It was a sudden move without much time to prepare, but I am loving it so far. I liked working in Doha, but it was time for me to move on from there. Here are my thoughts so far: [...]
It is the start of a new month and my life is getting a fresh start here in Doha. I just moved into a new apartment. It is a lot smaller than my old place, but it is nicer. I’ve got boxes everywhere, and I’m not quite sure how I am going to arrange everything. [...]
I got a chance to visit Asheville. It is such a great town, but most important was that I got to see Joy. Here are some pictures.
Went to Dubai for a week earlier this month. I was there for Gulf Photo Plus. It was a great week full of good workshops. I got a chance to work on some HDR stuff with David Nightingale. I really like his less over the top philosophy of HDR work. Also did a portrait retouching [...]
