Christmas in July 🗻 Southeast Alaska

Juneau, AK sits on an ice field, which creates these snow-capped mountain tops during the summer time. Meanwhile, below during this season is quite rich in green spruce and pine. Since I rarely see a true winter, my mind goes back here often in December.

A view that never really gets old. Empire State still holding court over the city.

The Gilded Room ⚜️ Boiserie from the Hôtel de Cabris, Grasses @ The Met

Adorned in gilded wooden framing and neoclassical stylings, this parlor sits timelessly in NYC. The room was originally erected in 1774 in Paris, France, the year before the American Revolution.

A quiet moment inside a Manhattan church. The air felt still, the light soft and heavy. One person sat alone in prayer, surrounded by silence and stillness.

Three people at Occupy Wall Street taking a break from the noise, trading stories, and reading up on revolution. After Zuccotti Park was cleared, some protesters regrouped at Collect Pond Park. The crowd had thinned, but the spirit was still alive.

I remember stopping for this one because of the colors first. That yellow and blue wall felt electric, cutting through the noise of downtown. Then I noticed the man sitting there, calm and steady, one leg gone but his presence grounded. It felt like a portrait of resilience more than anything else, a quiet strength in the middle of New York City.

Young Bald Eagle 🦅 • Alaska, USA

The bald eagle is a powerful bird, and I have seen many of them in Alaska and Florida through my life. A local told me ironically though that the best place to find eagles were either near coasts and dumps, since they are scavenger by nature. Without a doubt, they hold a presence when you spot them, and they insight reverence.
