    Breaking the rules is not as easy as songs about teenage angst, delinquents and pro-peer pressure motivational speakers make it out to be. Well... at least not the rules of composition.

  • Is it me you're looking for?

     While taking these photos, I analyzed the world around me in search for the small details and wonders I have taken for granted.

The Perfect Mentor: Dan Eldon

Posted by Allegra Markus at 23:08 • 0 comments
Being introduced to Dan Eldon's work has been one of the most inspirational experiences of my life. After a short seminar about Dan in photography class and a magnetic introduction to, The Journey is the Destination: The Journals of Dan Eldon, I was hooked. I noticed the way he poured his heart and soul onto the pages of his recovered journals and I was in a trance of infatuation,...
