Hi there,

I started Off The Wing to showcase some of the beautiful moments I’ve had while traveling in the past 10-15 years. It is an ongoing project, a catalog, a journal of sorts. It is a statement to my love of exploring and connecting with the world. It is a reckoning for all the backpacks I’ve carried filled with cameras.

The majority of shots are on 35mm film, but recently I've incorporated more digital photography. Sometimes I experiment with multiple exposures and different film formats. Sometimes the cell phone I had really got it best.

There is no post-processing on anything here- no cropping, no filters, no dodge & burn. I like the risk of memory and misjudged apertures. I like to see what I, and the camera, are capable of in each moment.

In any event, thanks for sharing the view through my lens.
