The banner images seen at the top of every page are some of my favorites from my collection. About 95% of all the photos here are ones I’ve taken myself, although there are a few here that are gifts from friends or colleagues. As of March 2024, I’ve taken approximately 60,171 photographs during my lifetime, and those are just the digital ones.
The photos span from about 2002 through the present (but more heavily loaded to the old), and you may be able to tell that the most common topics are:
- Photos from my trip to Britain
- Photos from my trip to Tajikistan and Uzbekistan
- Photos of my family pets (dogs, cats, goats, etc)
- Photos of my friends and I
- Landscapes
- Architecture (I am a huge architecture buff)
- Photos from my time in Jordan from 2008-2010
- Photos from my time in Panama from 2017-2018
- Marrying Christine in 2021
The image system is powered by the Random Image Script. Old, potentially vulnerable to being PHP-hacked (ask me how I know…), but I have yet to find anything that works better! (please…if you know of anything newer and better supported that does the same thing…leave a comment!)
If you have a question about any photo in particular, just ask me below in the comment box!
Dear Zach,
I am working for a visual effects company and we are doing a shot for a movie. One image of yours would provide great material for us to work with. It is this one:

The question is: do you have it in higher resolution? If yes, please get back to me!
Thank you, Thomas Galad
Hello Zach:
I came across a great picture of you covered in mud facing the Dead Sea with your back to the camera. I was wondering if you would mind us using it for a non-profit video, and if you could send a high-resolution version I would greatly appreciate it!
Thanks,
Jonathan
