000While in Chicago, I went downtown to visit a friend that worked at the Apple Store. Steve Jobs had just passed away earlier that week, and in front of the store was a memorial to him. A crowd had gathered, writing notes and reading what others had written. Messages were written in a variety of languages, all expressing the gamut of emotions—sadness, gratitude, humor.
When I stepped into the store I saw the display from the other side, and it was a fascinating contrast of “business as usual” continuing inside the store with this wall of colored Post-it notes in the background. I found it interesting to focus on the people through the notes as I snapped this photograph.

Darrin is pretty much what you might expect to get when you take a native Californian and raise him in the Midwest. Essentially that means he’s pretty laid back, prefers low humidity and ocean breezes, but has a Midwestern accent (as he’s been told). For nearly three decades, Darrin has been focused within the worlds of photography and wine. His wine experiences in California and Ohio have included sales, importing and as a sommelier. Photography has led him from capturing “just about anything people related” to in recent years, exploring the improvisational and documenting what he calls photographic terroir. He resides in the Cincinnati area when not visiting his daughters in California or is off photographing somewhere.
