One of the most thrilling flights I've taken, was on one of those little seater airplanes. Like a cessna, or something. you know, the ones you always hear that crash. But the views of Puerto Rico really squashed all of my anxiety of flying that I normal carry with me....its was just the pilot and I. She had me sit right up front, next to her. It was such a treat, I'll never forget it. We even flew through a rainbow. ahhh *sigh*.
Another round of black and white images of Vieques, on the water. I was digging through some images from my trip last year to put together a little travel book for friends. I also did a little story on a local festival celebrated in the central mountains of the island for the New York Times. It is a beautiful place with an incredible culture and I cant' wait to go back and explore more of it.

I received a surprising call from photo editor Ryan Schick at Conde Nast's Gourmet for a web photo. As a reader of Gourmet magazine and a fan of their photography, I was quite excited to see one of my images make it to a food publication!
