This issue of aWANTEDmag is about introspection and reflection largely due to the times we are living in now. My concerns for the future of the world at large, the environment, and yes, that date in November. I wanted to create a portfolio of work that contrasts the stark solitude of a photo studio where the subjects are looking outward and the beauty of British Columbia where the state of mind is looking inward. The goal was to have the viewer take a beat, appreciate all you have, and proceed forward with hope.

I hope all of you take advantage of the autumn beauty that is upon us, particularly those of us here in NYC, my favorite time of year.
