Events, Photography and News
Dance of the Gowanus
Artichoke Dance Company presents Immersive Performance Tours of Gowanus in an ever changing landscape along the superfund waterway in the heart of brownstone South Brooklyn.
The Surly Bonds of Earth
Humans in space. Most can name the first astronaut or the first man on the moon. For me, eight other names were burned into my memory because of one of my photographs, Challengers’ destruction. Last week, I travelled to Washington, D.C., to visit the Challenger Memorial at Arlington National Cemetery and to view the Space Shuttle Discovery in her new life as a museum exhibit. This is my tribute to Challenger and Discovery.
Temporary Detention | Forced Assembly

An Individual Sport
Alpine racing…… It’s a great sport that pits the athlete against a mountain and their own confidence in their own abilities. Toss in spring skiing conditions and you get an amazing opportunity to capture an individual testing their own limitations.
US Masters come to the East
The 2025 A Racer’s Edge Masters National Championships will be held March 18-22 at Gore Mountain, NY, and I will be documenting the event on SouthBrooklyn.com
The Ice of Enders Falls
Enders Falls in the town of Granby, CT, is a unique location in the winter with ice creating a magical fairy land from water, wind and freezing temperatures.
