This is Santander from above, a relaxed hilly town in Cantabria in the northern part of Spain. This is where I spent most of my time in Spain, and the easygoing mood of the town totally captivated me.

This is a house on the side of a hill in Bustidono, a small village about 2/3 hours away from Santander - its about 30 seconds walk from Cris's house. What can I say - its every bit as awesome as it looks. Again, the absence of any mechanical noise changes everything...

El Camello

Projects

The Tattoo Project
In this project, I have tried to take portraits of people with their tattoos, proudly showing the part the tattoos play in their lives.

Bangladesh
My country gets a lot of bad rep, and the only news you hear about it are about floods, cyclones, tragedies, political turmoil, etc. Its not what I remember growing up. I wanted to show a country that has so much more to offer than the sum of its statistics.
