Starting on Sept 6, I began doing a photo-a-day. The only rule is that it was taken that day. Enjoy.

Day 317

Day 317 -BACK IN AMERICA!  What better place to go than America’s biggest mall.  On top of that I got to try the panoramic mode on my new iPhone.  Best of all I got to spend time with my friends for the day, before more traveling. -JULY 20

Day 316

Day 316 -Well after six and a half months in Africa my time is up.  I’ve made a lot of great friends, did a lot of work that I’m very proud of, and hopefully left things better than I found them.  You may recognize this shot if you’re my age or a little older from […]

Day 310

Day 310 -I’ve been wanting to do this portrait for a while and today it actually happened.  This is actual hero.  The kind of man that every teenage boy wants to be and every bad guy fears.  He’s seen and done things that nobody wants to see and do that protects us.  He’s sacrificed his […]

Day 309

Day 309 -I had the pleasure of designing half of this coin, and finally got one.  It was quite an ordeal and unfortunately there are none left.  As I said I designed half of the coin and the other half was done by Joe McKee.  I tried to get you one buddy, but no luck. […]
