I tried to go out during Hurricane Sandy to shoot, but one thing after another and no power meant I had to stay at home.

The Jamestown Bridge was still closed so I couldn't get over to the islands, but I did make it down to Narragansett. Navigating around closed roads and downed trees I managed to get to...
