On assignment in Manchester.
At the time I noticed the vine, now I can't get away from the grid.

Mt. Washington in winter

A view from the top of the lift at Bretton Woods ski area as the clouds lift just long enough for a clear view. The weekend was cold and windy. Typical.

ADL honors "Unseen, Unforgotten"

The Anti-Defamation League held their annual Heroes Against Hate concert with the National Symphony Orchestra at The Kennedy Center on Monday night. Among the honorees were the photographers of the Birmingham News for their work covering the Civil Rights Movement based on the images in "Unseen, Unforgotten" published by the News almost four years ago. Tom Self, former Chief Photographer accepted the award with the understanding that he was not a hero, just there to bear witness.



I thought I could present the project well, but Liev Schreiber added a level of gravitas I have been unable to provide.




Other honorees included the daughters of a man shot during the hostage-taking of the Achille Lauro cruise ship in 1985 and the victim and family of a victim of neo-Nazi who attacked a Jewish Community Center and postal carrier in Los Angeles in 2000.


Gabriel Byrne read half the stories, bu not "Unseen, Unforgotten."

Hair Show

This seems like the third time this year we have photographed a hair show for the paper, but I have Chelsea C. to thank for it. She might be leaving for the Philadelphia Enquirer, but leaving her going away lunch Katie and I ran into this scene and tag-teamed for a photo package.
