Darkness

Jordan has changed drastically for me in the past 36 hours. It’s a phenomenon I can’t quite understand, but when something of this magnitude occurs, there is a haze over life. Little things become irrelevant.
For the next couple days I will continue to post images from my work around the explosions. You will see these images and they may look like others you’ve seen before in the news, but know that behind every photograph innocent lives were lost, and I have for the first time seen the darkness of mankind.

    Heed the prescient words of Omar the shopkeeper: make time for your soul. Don’t allow yourself to be overwhelmed by the darkness. You’ve always captured the light of humanity in your art.
