Two Years

Ragusa, Sicily, 2004: I started this website/blog as a half-hearted outlet for all the images I’d accumulated over the past decade or so… Two years later….. 24,432 hits, 291 posts, 51 categories, 627 tags, 269 comments and 930 images later…..

Skate Park

Newtown, Wellington NZ, March 2012: Found this abandoned skate park behind the Wellington hospital recently.

I replied “okay, but not really my kind of place…” He nodded his head knowingly… “I know whad ya […]
