New essay: The Limits of the Frame.
A reporting trip to southern Algeria taught me that risk, access, and effort don’t guarantee meaningful photographs. Some stories live at a scale the camera can’t compress.

New essay up. December is when nonprofits raise the most money, but often tell the weakest stories. Boards, especially faith-based ones, avoid the hard truth behind the work. It is time to change that. https://t.co/JdYIiJwPIU
A follow-up to my @Huckberry piece on taking your kids with you. The kids are older now, and the trips are farther away, planned eight months out, but the idea still holds. Travel is how we widen their world while we still can.

A reflection on comfort, consequence, and the work that still matters.

After 20 years in photojournalism, and a few transformative years teaching, I’m back in the field.

Always looking closer.

Hayat Tahrir al-Sham’s takeover of Aleppo is a seismic shift. w/ Assad’s forces reeling, and Hezbollah stretched thin, Tehran’s prized ally faces even tougher challenges. This winter, Assad will need to make hard choices—and fast. The dominoes are trembling. #Syria#Lebanon#HTS

Exploring the #Yemen conflict: Is it more economic than military? Curious about the ripple effect on Jordan due to the disruption in commercial sea traffic.
Concerning trend in nonprofit management retention: Colleagues frequently jumping between orgs, rarely staying >2 years. Boards, often led by the boomer gen, seem aloof. Time to reevaluate and invest in fairer compensation for upper management.
This is what it looks like from Mocha to Aden #Yemen - completely exposed. Mountains do not begin at least 30 miles from the coast. #houthi strikes are not coming from here.
