A lonely tree. Feels like a metaphor for the moment but I’m not sure how.

Thanks!
A few photos from my weekend hike through San Diego’s backcountry.

This man watches over #Teufelsberg from his small outpost. I wanted to photograph him looking out the window but he turned as I snapped the shot. Berlin, 2015

People are the life of the city. We can’t know a city without knowing something of the people who inhabit it. Berlin, 2015

I took the train from Berlin and walked there. Wasn’t too far and it was nice to get out of the city for an afternoon. I did stop in a local place for food - that was horrible. Traditional German food can’t compare to the ethnic food in Berlin.
The empty interior spaces of #Teufelsberg once housed fancy spy equipment. Now the walls are home to countless murals. Art fills the vacuum of abandonment. Berlin, 2015

Berlin spy mountain
Touring #Teufelsberg is a surreal experience. Once bristling with top secret equipment to spy on Russia, now it’s a desolate relic of the Cold War. Berlin, 2015

#Teufelsberg is a ghost of the Cold War. The huge station that once held elaborate sensors to spy into East Germany is now quiet but for the wind against decaying structures. Berlin, 2015

Outside of Berlin sits #Teufelsberg, a large hill made of WWII rubble that once housed an active spy station. Now it sits lonely as it slowly decays. Berlin, 2015

Teufelsberg is a former spy outpost turned artist canvas. Both cool and eerie at the same time. Berlin, 2015

There’s something that nobody talks about when it comes to working at home. How do you deal with not one but two cats sleeping on your lap as you’re trying to work? This is a real problem and nothing is being done to address this. #RemoteWork #cats #photography #pets #blackandwhite #petphotography
I’m gonna let you in on a little secret. Pretty much every photo on my feed was shot with a 28mm FF equivalent lens. Specifically, an 18mm lens on a cropped sensor camera. One lens, all the time. No FF. Berlin, 2015.

There’s a subtle beauty to be found when hiking in the hills of San Diego.

The power adjustment doesn’t always work, the triggers don’t always work and it’s hard to tell what’s going on. At a fraction of the price, Godox triggers are a better product and a much better value. Much more functional and easier to use. Godox for the win.
An ad for the Profoto radio triggers popped up on my IG feed. I own three of them at $300 a pop. Having recently added Godox into my kit, I can now say those Profoto triggers suck. By that I mean, they’re way too expensive and they suck. #photography

wallet since they sure didn’t have to. What considerate thieves!
After that, I kept my wallet in my breast pocket or somewhere a lot less accessible and more protected. Lessons learned. Berlin, 2015 5/5
The youths had pickpocketed me, taken my and then returned my wallet to my back pocket!
I wasn’t happy about the theft but I was relieved to have my wallet with my credit cards, ID etc. The cash I could replace, but no wallet would have been a minor disaster. I was thankful they returned my 4/5
since they began jostling me as kicked the ball around. After a few minutes, they had enough and left me to continue on.
Making my way home, I stopped off at a store to buy something. As I went to pay, I looked in my wallet for the €100 in cash that I carried with me - but it was gone. 3/5
men in the background of the photo came running over to see what I was doing. They were a bit upset about me taking their photo - until they found out that I was from America.
Then they got excited and began playing soccer with me. I was alone in the park with them and felt uncomfortable 2/5
