Photos
These photos are the byproduct of my double life as a road warrior and a shutterbug. I've changed cameras several times (2002, 2005, 2007, 2009); I am currently using a Canon EOS Rebel XSi, two underwater-safe cameras (Olympus Stylus TG-4, Olympus Tough TG-5), and the occasional cell phone. (When the TG-4 and TG-5 were used in the same location, the photos on the TG-4 were taken by Alina Bucur.)
Shots from 2005 onward are downsampled to save storage space and bandwidth. Let me know if you want the original of any downsampled image.
