Thank you for visiting Darack.com, showcasing my stock imagery and published books and articles. I'm currently working on re-crafting this site, to include a searchable database of both my images and my published articles. |
 |
| My photography work is represented for licensing through the creative branch of Getty Images; please peruse my imagery here. I strongly encourage imagery users, both editorial and advertising / commercial, to search for my imagery through Science Faction Images; you may call them directly at (206) 949-0527. Science Faction markets my work both directly and through Getty Images. Science Faction, in my opinion, is the best photography agency in the industry, for both photographers and imagery users. |

Some recent publication credits include: |
 |
| -Smithsonian Air and Space Magazine published my photo feature of US Marine Corps Aviation in Iraq. |
 |
| (Some videos of US Marine Corps aviation in Iraq from the above shoot here) |
 |
| -Weatherwise Magazine just published the latest installment of my Weatherscapes series. |
 |
| -Weatherwise Magazine has also just published my article (this issue's cover feature) about the Marfa Mystery Lights, where I explain how the 'lens' of the atmosphere, through refraction, has created this west Texas spectacle. |
 |
| -Weatherwise is also now publishing a new series of mine, Demystifying Jupiter, which explains the fundamentals of the atmosphere and includes some of my favorite weather imagery. This first article delves into the second law of thermodynamics and its governing influence over weather (and everthing else). |
 |
| -I have three articles in the 2008 Weather Guide Calendar: "Iraq: Combat in Extreme Weather," "The Midriff Islands: An Oasis of Life in a Marine Desert," and "Southern Patagonia: Extreme Weather at the Tip of a Continent." |
 |
| -Climbing Magazine's issue #260 has an article of mine entitled "Road Through Hell," about riding in the back of a US Marine Humvee in Afghanistan in the middle of the night. |
 |
| -Proceedings Magazine, published by the United States Naval Institute, recently published my feature article on US Marine Corps Embedded Training Teams, and how they train for deploying to Afghanistan. |
 |
| -The Marine Corps Gazette recently published an article I co-authored with Marine Corps Major Matthew Tracy entitled "Miracle in Anbar." In this unique article, I (an outside, civilian writer) discuss my observations of Haditha, Iraq during my time embedded with Marines of the 2nd Battalion of the 3rd Marine Regiment, then Matt explains the transformation of the region from his perspective (of being a commander of Company E of the Battalion). Matt is the recipient of the 2006 Leftwich Trophy, one of the most coveted awards in the Marine Corps. |
 |
| -Images of mine continue to be used for book covers; recently, for books published in Canada, Brazil, and Italy, among others. |
 |
| -Germany's Stern Magazine (readership in excess of 8 million), one of the world's leading news publications, recently used an image of mine of a Dubai mosque for their cover: |
|
| |
| -National Geographic recently used an image of mine of the summit region of Nanga Parbat's Rakhiot Face in a wild storm. My journey to Nanga Parbat was one of my all time best photography expeditions, yielding a wide array of striking images that would be used in a number of publications, including Climbing, Alpinist, Weatherwise, and many others. View a collection of my favorite Nanga Parbat images here. |
 |
-The RAND Corporation used two of my images for the cover of their 2007 Annual Report, their 60th anniversary edition. |
 |
| -Images of mine have recently been used throughout the world for commercial and advertising projects by a wide array of corporations, including Volkswagen, Samsung, Siemens, and others. Countries where my images have been used for advertising include Germany (television), Sweden (billboard), Chile (television), the United States (magazine, newspaper, and television), Japan, Mexico, and many others. My images continue to also be used for other commercial purposes, including product packaging, informational pamphlets, and corporate brochures. |
 |
| My imagery collection continues to grow, available through both Getty Images and Science Faction, and will be searchable and viewable at Darack.com. I'll be providing direct links for each image to both Science Faction's and Getty Images' respective pages, so that users may find an image on Darack.com and license through either of these agencies. |
| I've had my images used by virtually every type of visual media, from postage stamps (using this image) to freeway billboards, and most everything in-between, including newspapers, magazines, fiction and non fiction books, electronic media, and broadcast and cable television throughout the world. |
 |
| I've been fortunate to work with some great publications on an ongoing basis, including Weatherwise Magazine (where I contribute a regular feature entitled Weatherscapes, and now Demystifying Jupiter as well as a number of stand-alone, in-depth feature articles), and Alpinist Magazine, where I chronicled my time in Afghanistan's eastern Kunar Province with the U.S. Marine Corps during combat operations seeking out Al Qaeda and Taliban forces, among other publications. |
| I'll be archiving all of my published writing work on Darack.com, in both HTML and .PDF format, and making these articles searchable as well. |
| Thank you very much for visiting, |
