VISUAL Diary
An attempt to subvert social media and stay in touch with those around me. Remember when Instagram was for sharing photos?

The Adriatic Sea
With hot summer days comes the need to cool down and never have I felt as cooled after dip in this sea. The salt content is quite high, so you end up being able to float on the surface without any reason to to move at all. The level of relaxation in that is on another level. Add to it some wine and a toke of a joint and you are living your best life.

Wicklow Mountains, Ireland
When I was composing this photograph I was frustrated that Kira and Pat had leapt into the foreground of the space and it was not until I was able to sit down and edit that I realized they added a certain dynamic to the shot that otherwise was missing in my other frames of the moment. Their excitement to see the sight puts some perspective on the grandeur of the mountains here in this exceptionally beautiful land. If not for their exuberance, the shot would not have come out how it did, and thus, they can be credited as saving the shot.

Tvísöngur
“Tatooine gone green” & “They look like Hornet’s Nests” were the two comments that I couldn’t have come up with myself as better captions for this photo. This sound sculpture is in my favorite town in Iceland, called Seyðisfjörður. It is actually quite a long hike from the town itself and offers a pretty stunning view when you get up there, as you can imagine.
