Elephants Tortured By Fire

It is the nastiest windiest snowiest night of this winter in the outer banks. I am staying home. So I am pretending I am in Malaysia where I once saw elephants tortured by fire to tame them for work.

Mike’s Sofa

Mike’s sofa sits in his backyard covered in plastic. Inside Mike is making collector prints for me. Mr. Courvoisier is my master printer. Beautiful afternoon in Alexandria, Va

Public Showers

This is the photo The Beach Magazine in Rio de Janeiro chose as their cover this week to represent some of my#beachgames work. Public showers are the norm about every 300 feet of every beach in Rio. All ages sizes shapes rinse the sea salt off together in communal good spirit.

High flying Wilson Crispim

I am shooting heavy now in Rio for my upcoming Beach Games tabloid. High flying Wilson Crispim , 20, is a parkour artist. He was one of my photo students yesterday for underprivileged yet serious photographers. Wilson makes death defying jumps that appear impossible even when witnessing. A for real Superman.

Igor
