One doesn’t stop seeing. One doesn’t stop framing. It doesn’t turn off and turn on. It’s on all the time. -Annie Leibovitz
Not all those who wander are lost. -J.R.R. Tolkien

Out the Window
Wandering and seeing.
As the title quotes suggest, there are some of us who are blessed or, perhaps, cursed with a need to wander this world AND to document what we see. It is a compulsion. I have been privileged to be able to wander a small bit of our planet and to see many people, places and things. However, this collection is not about that.
Out the Window is not a travelogue but rather a collection of images that could only be captured whilst traveling. Whether it is the distortions and reflections caused by window glass, the high perspective from the upper deck of a train or the hazy fog of a sleep-deprived arrival at CDG, the very act of traveling alters your perception and the explosion of smartphones means that a capture device is almost always at hand.
Motion, distortion, reflection — images captured in transit are odd composites. Sometimes surreal and often other-worldly, photographing whilst traveling affords the photograph a unique way of seeing. Now, it is time for me to share that way of seeing with you. Enjoy.
