Real Tigers


This is sort of old news to some of you, since I've know for a couple of weeks, but it looks like I'll be assisting Steve Winter on his project for national geographic documenting Tigers. We'll be headed to Summatra at the beginning of July to photograph the summatran tiger and the culture surrounding the tiger (i.e. its societal threats and allies). There's a list of other places we're slated to travel, which I won't go into just yet, but its pretty much all the places that tigers still live in the wild. Its worth mentioning that I have not been to any of these places, nor have I ever ridden an elephant into the jungle to track tigers, nor have I ever been so excited about something in my life. I'll try to keep you guys posted through this blog as much as possible, although I imagine there won't be many wifi signals floating around in the jungle, so we'll see. Here we go...

More from the Border


More pictures taken from the border of Glacier National Park and the Blackfeet Indian Reservation. Most of the park looks nothing like this. Much more verdant and postcard-worthy, but there was a large fire here (natural causes) a few years ago. Can you believe its snowing in Saint Mary, Montana? 

Dinosaurs are so underrated


Yeah. Sure. Back in pre-school and elementary dinosaurs were all the rage. But whats become of them since? Well I'm here to tell you that Dinosaurs are just as neat and just as awesome as we always thought they were when they first captured our imaginations as little people. Lest we forget once more, my dear friend Brendan and I are hitting the road for a grand Dino-Diner roadtrip to chronicle in word and image the modern day dino. The date of this trip is yet to be determined, but I can tell you that we will be exploring the great american west for traces of dino and dinomania, and we will eat at diners. Many of them. Stay tuned...
