Photos from Ghana Youth Project

In October 2005 and 2007 I went to Ghana, West Africa to teach photography to kids from the impoverished neighborhood of Nima, Accra. This project is something I designed and executed on my own, with the intentions of offering an outlet to Ghanaian youth. Through photography the kids were given an opportunity to show the world what their country is really like. I anticipate returning to Ghana with 6 San Francisco youth photographers in June 2008.

  • Cute New Chameleon Discovered While Being Eaten by Snake November 23, 2009
    A new species of chameleon, measuring just 6 inches from snout to tail, has been discovered in east Tanzania’s mountains. Differentiated from other species by the pattern of scales on its head and the flat shape of its nose appendage, it was first spotted while being eaten by a tree snake.

Stretching across more than 2 million square feet, the terminal doesn’t sit directly on the soil, but rather on more than 300 isolators, bearings that can move side-to-side during an e […]

  • Sushi DNA Tests Reveal Fraud November 20, 2009
    A biologist walks into a sushi bar and orders some tuna. What does he get? Escolar, a nasty fish with buttery flesh that can cause bizarre episodes of diarrhea, accompanied by a waxy intestinal discharge. It’s not a joke. It happened five times to the same scientists during a brief research project. The results of that [...]
