A bloodied pedestrian.
An old man with a walker.
My grandfather’s dim hallway.

Walking out of the liquor store, a friend.
A friend smoking a joint.
New Year’s, 2015.

Drunk on his bed, a friend.
My father on a log.
My father hiking towards the sun.

A dog with a broken cow skull.

A small babbling brook.

A bum playing a flute.

My sister lighting a cigarette in the yard.

My brother with a full beard.
My brother posing in the rain.

A dog in front of the old market.

An old man smiling on a skateboard.

The taco truck down the street.
Photos in a box
