Icelandic Countryside
The landscape in Iceland has everything from sea and sand, to peaks and valleys. These are some shots from a long drive along the west coast, and around the [impossible to pronounce] Snaefellnes peninsula, and back down to the Blue Lagoon.
Red Film in Iceland
I had the good fortune of traveling to Iceland this past May. What a stunning landscape! Truly a photographer’s dream. When I first saw pictures of it online, I thought it looked like Mars, and in person, it did not disappoint.
KIDS IN SPACE: Documenting the Child’s Perspective of Architectural Design
NO. 2 – PUBLIC, NYC
panel commentary
architect The design for Public was partially inspired by buildings of the FDR-era Works Progress Administration, constructions which tended to have the same effect as medieval European cathedrals or mosques had on their constituents – they provided the common man with a belief that there was an institution larger than themselves they could have faith in.

It was a perfect late summer day in New York – cloudless sky, warm air, cool breeze – and the sun was shining all over the place, literally. For those of you not familiar, NYC’s High Line is old railroad bridges [turned urban park-space] that wind over, under, and through the buildings of Manhattan’s west side.
It is located near the Hudson River, so as the sun went westward this afternoon, the nearby buildings reflected bright, beautiful light in all kinds of directions off the windows of the surrounding buildings. The result was something like movie set lighting, only more abstract.
