Hi! Thanks for visiting. I'm an American photographer living in Buenos Aires. These are photos from the blog I kept on my site from 2003 to 2009. I now have redesigned the home page to just show a portfolio of my current work. I also blog at BuenosAiresPhotographer.com where I post my baires snapshots.

 

The Getty. Pictures of the San Fernando Busway. Los Angeles takes a lesson from Curitiba, Brazil [pdf] While in LA i rode on the MetroRapid bus along Wilshire all the way from Downtown to Santa Monica. It was interesting to see Los Angeles from a New York perspective, that is, as a pedestrian, without a car. LA has done a good job of making the buses fast by spacing out stops and electronically holding greenlights but it's still traveling over surface streets and it took 90 minutes to go 12 miles. Buses and lightrail will always be massively inconvenient for getting around LA. The only real solution would be to charge tolls on the freeways to speed them up.

Hi. I'm a 33 year-old American currently living in Buenos Aires. Before that I lived in California, Sao Paulo and New York and if you browse through the archives below you can see photos of all those places. Currently I'm posting most of my pictures on BuenosAiresPhotographer.com. I also have an old geocities page with some outdated information but also more photos of Buenos Aires, friends and my 9/11 pictures.
