As someone who loves to travel to new and sometimes obscure places, photography quickly became a tool that allowed for deeper exploration and appreciation of the various locations ventured to over the years. Equipped with a photographic framing of physical space and time, one can unlock a difference perspective in how to view one’s surroundings, the people and structures within them, and one’s own role in it all. A photographer’s senses tingle with anticipation in unfamiliar settings, as what may be seen as quotidian to many can make a photographer quiver with quizzical delight. The world offers us a tapestry of vibrant cultures, customs, and creative expressions ripe for respectful observation and testimony to a shared human narrative.
