Trees & Rocks Photo: Ella is a sliver of a beach town on the south coast of Sri Lanka hit extremely hard by the 2004 tsunami. It seemed everyone I met volunteered a tragic tale of the death of a family member or friend. The small family-run beach-front hotel I stayed at tragically lost 2 employees who were swept out to sea. On an uplifting note, due to the generous donations of foreign tourists who fell in love with Sri Lanka, Ella was able to rebuild quickly and regain at least a semblance of normalcy.

Peephole Photo: Walking down the street, I noticed a boy's head sticking slightly out of this gigantic metal security door. Whenever I'm walking around with my camera, I frequently pre-adjust the exposure for changing light conditions, even if no photo is present, in order to be prepared for the unexpected. As a result, I was already dialed in to the correct exposure and grabbed a quick shot of the playful child before he shied away from the camera. The final photo looks posed but in reality it was one of those great moments of serendipity that all photographers hope for.
