A public research university that was founded in 1870, today OSU is home to 46,740 students. Here is a collection of shots I took on campus.

Seattle Public Library
The library system that caters to Seattle was established in 1890. Today, the Seattle Public Library holds close to 1 million books, and also large collections of maps, oral history, and state documents. The ten story structure features several spacious reading rooms, a lecture hall, and many expansive research collections. A great place to retreat during a rainy Seattle afternoon.

Short North Street Art
Here is a collection of street murals on High Street; the area is located between downtown Columbus and Ohio State University. Lined with coffee shops and art galleries, this historic neighborhood is best explored with a camera and book in your backpack.

آيت بن حدّو
The views are stunning. Climbing to the top of an ancient Kasbah allows a panoramic that provides a look back in time. Aït Benhaddou, is located along the historic caravan route between the Sahara and Marrakech. On the edge of the High Atlas Range, this desert oasis is the perfect place to observe the beauty of earthen Moroccan architecture. The snow capped peaks in the distance display an amazing end to the supine foreground. I highly recommend this locale for those trekking though Morocco.

Doors of Chefchaouen
Chefchaouen’s alleys are lined with unique doors and frames. Walking this small hamlet in the Rif Mountains is almost a religious experience. Northern Africa in a pellucid form.

Delineations of Prague
The historical capital of Bohemia proper leaves too many photos to be taken. With that, it also seems impossible to capture the full beauty of modern Prague. The 4th Czechoslovakian Writers’ Congress in 1967 took a strong stand against a controlled state, this gallery is in honor of that meeting and the beginning of the “Prague Spring.”
Moscow in Captures
The northernmost mega city on earth has enough to keep a photographer busy for a lifetime. History, architecture and culture are on constant display in the capital of Russia. Nine train stations link Moscow to Europe and Asia. All cities are under constant change but Moscow is even more so. The transition to a market economy has made living in a small flat unbelievably expensive. Mix in current politics and there is always something to discuss at a local cafe.

عرق الشبي
The Erg Chebbi in pictures. Staying in a Berber tent after a camel trek is a visual treat. Morocco affords many types of unique terrain and hospitality. Watching the sun come up at 5AM is quite a sight. Shredding some fresh powder on the dunes was pretty cool as well. Photogs get to the desert ASAP.
St. Petersburg, Russia
Lenin, Tchaikovsky and Rasputin…the echoes of Leningrad hold onto a labyrinthine history. Today, this historic seaport of revolutionaries and playwrights offers a comfortable area to experience Russian culture. From a local coffee shop to the world famous Hermitage museum, St. Petersburg has plenty to do. If you enjoy reading Russian authors such as Tolstoy and Chekhov, walking around St. Petersburg is the perfect ingredient to refresh your imagination.

A Berber tribe called the Miknasa
Originally the capital of Morocco was under the control of Moulay Ismail, a quiet city that sits near the Atlas Mountains. Meknes is the most personable city I have had the privilege of exploring in Morocco. The medina has the right touch of authentic character and raw living confines. If I substitute Meknes in for Lake Wobegon in Garrison Keillor’s timeless quote, it would accurately read- “Welcome to Meknes, where all the women are strong, all the men are good-looking, and all the children are above average.”
