This past monday evening and tuesday, Krister had a unique opportunity. By now the Embassy has noticed that Krister is actually the best photographer in the building, and they have gracefully accepted his passion as an added bonus. That means that Krister drags his camera to work daily, as he never knows what might pop [...]

small town election craze….

This morning I woke up early: before 6 AM Gideon and I were watching results come in from the USA elections. Even before going to bed we pretty much figured that Obama would become America’s next president. But still – anything could happen. This morning we knew: it was an elected fact: the USA will [...]

This morning it was my job to make some memorable images for the sake of Ambassador Roland Arnall. Not for Ambassador Arnall, as he passed away a week or so ago. But for his wife Dawn, his son and his daughter. The service was beautiful. It took place in the Beth Jehoeda Synagogue right around [...]

A set of 5 historical panels, done for the Embassy. This idea was the result of Rod Coe (FM) and I talking about getting some art on the walls of the Embassy, and my mind doing some.

To stay or not to stay

Every day I ask myself the same question… What am I doing here? Now in this case, with “here” I am refering to the Embassy. In theory, I walk into this building everyday against my better instincts. There is little which excites me about being here. Outside of Howard Scheckner, there are not many people [...]

Once again, I got to shoot a president. Well, not literally. On 7 and 8 May, I went down to Maastricht to take up my function of “un-official Official Embassy Photographer” Had to use my “film” cameras, which I hadn’t touched in a year or two. Felt like a “sore thumb” in between the Dutch [...]
