- Duomo on a Foggy Morning - Florence, Italy
- Date
- 2014
- Description
- Almost every morning for 8 months I would walk past the Duomo in Florence to go to class. The Duomo, a massive Cathedral that looms over the city like a giant fist, casts it's shadow and impression on all that visit Florence. Needless to say, it is hardly ever without tourists surrounding its glistening marble walls. This photo was taken on a foggy morning that I had to wake up at 4 am to catch a bus, and there was not a single other person in Piazza Del Duomo. As I rushed to catch the bus I momentarily looked up to see the giant structure looking back at me. I felt small but peaceful as the shutter from my camera echoed across the stone. It was a moment I will not forget.

- Jazz Band at the Duomo - Florence, Italy
- Date
- 2014
- Description
- The Duomo is always a center of lively action and culture. There are street performers, artists, musicians, and vendors in a crazy mix of tourism, culture, and excitement. In this photo I was hoping to grasp some of the energy that circulates around Duomo. Kids playing, adults waiting, and pigeons flying while the Italian 3 piece jazz band adds cadence to the moment.

- Italian Dolomites - Italy
- Date
- 2014
- Description
- This photo was taken during a weekend trip to northern Italy in well known Dolomite Mountains. This trip was significant to me because I made it completely alone, I traveled on local buses and trains, and I got by as much as I could communicating in the Italian language. Once I was on the ascent to Schlernhaus mountain refuge on Mt. Shlern (formerly part of Austria) I was overcome by complete serenity. I stayed the night and hung out with some locals drinking Amaro Montenegro, and woke up early and snapped this photo about 2 miles away from the refuge.
