Finally, A New One

Well, I've been incredibly bad at putting new work up. It's been months. Instead of trying to go back through 4 months worth of work, I've chosen to put just a few new ones up. The first set is a set of people whose faces have just really been stuck in my mind over the past few months. The second set is from a bad storm that tore through our area last month, causing tons of damage.

Hope you enjoy. Cheers.

Stormy Weather

In early January, a storm tore through our area, cutting power to more than 20,000 people and leaving one person dead. Here's a few aftermath shots.
