I covered the annual Independence Day fireworks at Trum Field for the Somerville Journal last night. The evening was chaotic, and I’m not exactly proud of the United States right now, but the fireworks sure did look pretty.

I took some shots for Cloud Cellar‘s fall zine “Whole Hole Hole.” These are not my typical work at all, but I figured if anyone wouldn’t mind it, it’d be “Medford’s most esoteric gallery and venue.” Statement: That’s What We Get Here are a few of the kinds of holes I am interested in: –…
