He has done essays for Time: http://www.time.com/time/asia/features/photoessays/tibet.delano.0717/frames/2.html and Outside magazine: http://web.outsideonline.com/magazine/1296/9612fehapp.html in addition to winning the Eisie award and Excellence in Communication award. For me this style has more to do with the representation of the memory of a subject than the actual subject itself. What do you think? Just to stay on topic Delano uses a M2 and 35mm lens for most of his work and has been featured with one man shows at the Leica Gallery in Prague and Germany.
