That reflection photo of the North Tower was my first real photograph.  It opened a door to a world that I’ve been exploring ever since.  People often mistake the photos for paintings.

Strangely enough, I had also been photographing the WTC in the days just before 9/11.  The section of the website titled “Skyline Requiem” gives an account of this.

I finally left NYC in January, 2003.  Moved to Iceland.  I love the life here because there is no fear.  It is filled with cosmic thunder–sonically and otherwise.

Leaving the Army was written years before 9/11, can’t remember exactly when.
