My original plan was to photograph Occupy Wall Street as it progressed, but a side project developed when I noticed how many artists are behind the movement. Since then I've been focusing on the art behind the occupation which ranges from protest sign design to music to performance art. These are just a few photos of the creativity you'll find within the Occupy movement.

That's the question I have today. Occupy Wall Street has been a nonviolent movement from the start. Go talk to any of the occupiers and you're more often than not greeted with a smile and interesting conversation. The musicians and artists share their talents while encouraging others to join in. It's a peaceful friendly atmosphere.

I was happy to see Issue 2 defeated by the hands of Ohio voters this week.

OWS has a great group of people out in the park.

I've spent some time at different OWS rallies and last week I was able to go to Zuccotti Park in NYC.

One thing that impressed me the most at Occupy Wall Street was that I was surrounded by very artistic people. Everywhere I looked there were pieces of art, musicians, dancers, and performers.

I made it to Occupy Wall Street for a day and I will be going back to spend more time there as it was a great experience.

Having heard so many different things as to what it would be like upon arrival, I honestly had no idea what to expect. However, the people were incredibly welcoming even when I approached them with the camera in hand and the organization of this community was incredible.

Who doesn't love a cute dog photo to start off a post?
Greed is defined as an intense and selfish desire for something, especially wealth or power. Greed can be such a dangerous thing and it's a problem in this country and around the globe.

This is my first time writing on here - although I think I'm more of a photographer than a writer. I took on a project to photograph Occupy Vermont and the experience has been great. Now I'm trying to get out to New York and other rallies around the States as well.
