''Ghosted by a Dead Man''
By [ISRAR khan] I met Elias on a Thursday in April, the kind of day that smells like rain even when the sky is clear. We were both waiting in line for overpriced espresso at a pop-up café in Brooklyn.

A Love Letter to photography
I write this from the edge of a cliff in Santorini, the Aegean stretched out like a brushstroke of blue beneath the sun. You’d love this place—the way the sky kisses the sea, the quiet whispers of the wind, the hum of life that pulses beneath the whitewashed walls. It reminds me of you. Everything beautiful does.
