On Tuesday I’m heading back to Kenya. I’ll be exploring Tsavo (think The Ghost and The Darkness) and Diani (think beaches) for a week and then on January 17th I’m heading back to work. After what will be a forced hiatus of 20 months, due to my accident, I’m finally returning to client work with humanitarian organizations. I’m thrilled to …
Within The Frame, Within Top Ten.
You could have knocked me over with a feather (whatever that means) when my publishing team emailed me yesterday morning to let me know that Within The Frame was chosen by Amazon.com as one of the best books of 2009 in Arts & Photography. It came in 5th, after Joe McNally’s Hotshoe Diaries, Scott Kelby’s Digital Photography Book, Volume 3, …
Ethiopia: Anatomy of an Assignment
This one was an adventure, no two ways about it. Moments before I got into a cab for the airport last week I got an email from the office in Ethiopia saying I might need a business visa and we should apply as soon as possible. Blink. Pardon? Needless to say I left for the airport while trying to deal …
VDW in Photoshop User
This month’s Photoshop User magazine is the usual excellent content, but with the addition of an article I wrote on Vision-Driven Workflow. It’s the featured article in the Lightroom Section. I’m not sure if this makes it a must-read or the one issue you can just skim over, but there you have it. Consider yourself warned. If you’re not a …
Where In The World, Sept-Oct 2008
I will be in India from September 10 to the 27th, then in Kathmandu until October 24th. I’ll be unreachable while in India, though Sharon will be checking my email, and I will have no access to the internet until I am settled in Kathmandu, at which point I will update the blog.

Pacific Science Centre, Seattle
A few of my Ethiopian images, Harar in Yellow, being one of them, were licensed for today’s public announcement of the Lucy’s Legacy exhibit coming to Seattle’s Pacific Science Centre this fall. The exhibit opens in Seattle on October 4, 2008 through to March 8, 2009.
Where In the World, February 14-23 2008
See you when I get back and thaw out. Have always wanted to go to Mongolia, but doing it in February just never occurred to me!
Mongolia In February
**There’s a subliminal message embedded in this photograph. See if you can find it. I’ve had some questions about my preparation to shoot in Mongolia. It’s a winter shoot, outside, so it comes with challenges I don’t usually face while shooting in Africa, S. America or Asia. Temps right now in Ulaanbataar are running from highs of -15C to lows …
Where In the World, January 07-22 2008
Click the map to make it bigger. Today I fly to Tunisia for two weeks of assignment work for me. When I first began this adventure I promised myself that as much as it was possible and OK with Sharon, I would do one trip annually – the only goal of which would be to work on my portfolio and …
Photoshop User Featured Photographer
I’m pleased as punch (whatever that means) to have received a pdf of the spread in the new Photoshop User magazine featuring yours truly. Of all the magazines I get this one is the one I anticipate the most and get the most bang for buck on. Seeing three pages of my images is a real kick. Can’t wait to …
