The Christian Science Monitor at 8mm

Today was my last day at The Christian Science Monitor, after being their photo intern for over a year. It has been a privilege. I wrote an email to tell my colleagues that I am proud that the Monitor's thoughtful, thorough and hopeful approach to world news has helped to form my journalistic voice, and I meant it. I miss everyone already, but I'm excited to delve back into community journalism in my new gig at the Concord Monitor.

I'm feeling awfully sentimental, so I decided to balance that with some fisheye shots from the newsroom.

I also shot a couple at 35mm: Joanne & Alfredo enjoying my farewell lunch.
