During this short moment of self-reflection, I have to decide whether or not I should be thinking about what I have done or what I haven’t done. What is my mood at that particular moment….am I sarcastic? Am I excited? Depressed? Is the typical Pacific Northwest mood affecting me? Is the rain getting me down?

One bright morning the cannon of St. Angelo fired, and all Rome was in motion. I followed the crowd.

The Abdi Dalems of Indonesia are royal servants. They live a life of devotion towards the sultanate palace and their sultan. The Abdi Dalem pictured here is a guide at the Royal Palace (Kraton) of Yogyakarta who gave me a moment for me to capture him while he was guiding a group.
