Kent's 2002 Serum Run 25 Photos
Since the beginning of time man has attempted to capture the experiences of special moments in prose, poetry, song, art, and photos, yet the only media that can truly capture those moments are in one's mind and heart. To truly capture such moments one must be there. Those of us on the 2002 Serum Run share many magical memories of our wonderful adventure. May these photos stir those heart felt memories.
These are just some of the digital images I captured on the trial. I am hoping my 35mm slides will be even better (I only shot about 20 rolls, so should have 1 or 2 decent shots). Images on this site are in a lower resolution, if you want full resolution version e-mail me and I can zap them to you.
All images are copyrighted, but as members of the expedition you are welcome to use these images for personal usage or in promoting the Serum Run 25 Organization. Anybody wishing to use images for commercial purposes will need to contact me to discuss such usage.
