Big news! Safer in the Dark is going back to its roots as a consumer digest blog focused on music, film, etc. This means all of my artwork is moving to a new space that can better display it in all of its glory: scrambledgreggs.com.

scrambled greggsThe site was built using Django and Tastypie on the back-end API, Backbone.js, Require.js, Underscore.js, and LessCSS on the front-end, and Heroku and AWS S3 for free.99 web hosting. I’ll be posting all my new work there as it is completed, so check back frequently for updates!

These ten shots are my favorites of the ones I took there, and are a good representation of what I saw on my trip.

You can see more photos, some from my trip and others not, at my flickr.
