To all the ships at sea.  Last summer, my dear friend Bill DeSmedt, Harvard grad (he always loves to remind me, you can always tell a Harvard man, but you can’t tell him much), was kind enough to introduce me to Samuel Arun Kumar Kudumula.  Sam is a test architect at Alliance Global Services and an avid photographer.  He wanted to swing by to see our studio and learning center and it was a great day.  He’s back in the United States, so we took the opportunity to reconnect, talk photography, and of course world politics.  Any time I have an opportunity to learn from someone like Sam, I certainly jump on it.  It allows me a different way of seeing, and isn’t that really what it’s all about?  Visual literacy, photography, film-making, and the world.

The following photographs were generated by Sam and one of his friends.
