Just play,
Tell me you'll run with me,
Until my legs give way.
Taken in Karachi, Pakistan.

7:03 pm, twenty-three minutes before sunset.
the corridor is a clean, bright place. the lights on the ceiling are arranged in a perfect, endless rhythm. people are blurs, figures moving from one point to the next. an old man pulls a cart. the wheels are the only sharp thing in this world. they turn. they carry a weight. the man is just a shape, a shadow attached to the load. it is a simple, physical fact. a life, measured in the quiet, steady pull against the floor.
Somehow this shot seems wider and more expansive than the 28mm it was shot at. Is it the low angle? Is it the enclosure of the stream bed? Is it that my brother is a tiny figure in the scene?

Gorton Creek, Oregon is probably the most greenest place I have ever been to, especially during the spring season. Everything is so fresh,new and lush and your skin almost catches the green glow.
This area personally, is one of the many underrated places in the gorge. This morning, I had the whole place to myself surprisingly for almost two hours. With almost no wind, all that you could hear is the gentle flow of stream and the occasional bird tweets.
After the festivities have wrapped up and under the setting sun, Canadian Pacific 40B (the Canada 150 Train) prepares to make a reverse move into Aberdeen Yard on the north end of town. CP exemplified that, even in 2017, railroads still have a magic about them.
Taken over year ago this downstream shot shows the River Massan in spate.

Fall leaves and brownstones in Union Park in the South End of Boston. Shot with Sigma 19mm lens on Sony a6000 mirrorless camera.
I know I promised photos from yesterday's snowstorm, but I haven't had time to process them yet and I already had this one all ready to post! I posted a version of this photo months ago, but this one is brighter and I love the contrast of the colors in this version.
Butsbury wash, Essex in flood. The water here on the day was over 1 meter deep enough to float most cars leaving them stranded. The lorry was big enough, and driver brave enough to attempt it, lots of people are less lucky and end up stuck and featured in local and national press! Flooding here and on surrounding roads has become much more frequent in recent years. Shout out to Discovery Jamie, a youtuber I met at the ford who does a great job rescuing people who are foolish enough to ignore his advice and drive in.
It's not really visible but this toadlet sat on a sand path in the dunes. It looks like it has been buried in sand.

South Georgia is a remote and inhospitable island, 864 miles from the Falklands. Rising steeply from the sea, South Georgia is rugged and mountainous, and home to over 100,000 king penguins.
The king penguin is the second largest species of penguin. In size it is second only to the emperor penguin. An adult king penguin stands at 70 to 100 cm (28 to 39 in) tall and weighs from 9.3 to 18 kg (21 to 40 lb). The chicks are completely covered in brown feathers and they often live in group with other chicks, a so called creche. These youngsters are particularly curious, which is great for photography.
There are very few places on this planet where the wildlife is not afraid of people, and this is by far the most impressive one. South Georgia is covered in wildlife, and it’s all extremely relaxed. The reason for this is that people have not hunted here and have not fed the wildlife here. These are the two main causes for a disturbed relationship between wildlife and humans. Tourism to South Georgia is highly regulated, and this is a good thing. Mankind has a tendency to f*** up nature wherever they go, so we should cherish places like this and protect it from the destructive powers of homo sapiens.
To walk around here is nothing short of spectacular. When we got close to a large penguin rookery, I simply lay down flat on my stomach and the wildlife was coming to me. A welcome change for a wildlife photographer. This young king penguin chick was very curious and came close enough for me to use my 14-24.
