I was diagnosed with macular degeneration in 2013. In the decade since, I have lost virtually all of my central vision, making it impossible for me to drive a car, read a book, or even recognize faces. The experience has changed the way I see the world, both literally and figuratively. The stories I have shared here are about my journey.

A Moment of Solace
As I look back through my previous images this is one I find myself stopping at over and over again. It is a rather simple shot taken in the Caribbean near Haiti. As I sat and watched the sun set this particular evening I found myself fixated on this small sailboat. I wonder where is it going. Where is it coming from. Perhaps nowhere. I know its just a moment in time. That soon the sun will drop below the horizon and it will be dark and the sun will rise the next morning on a brand new day but for this brief moment in time I imagine the passengers on this small boat completely at peace, without a care in the world.
