It’s at the start of December and the leaves have just started to change here in Los Angeles. With 2010 approaching it’s been a time of reflection. A decade to remember (some might say forget) but it only begs for me to look at Spring 2010 and beyond. Like the leaves on a tree and […]

Watching the sunset wearing shorts and a tee shirt in late Oct is not a bad thing.. Orange Sunset in time for Halloween 09

35mm(no photoshop): I remember taking this photo of Kyoto’s Golden Temple back when I used to travel to Japan a lot more.  Kyoto is the former capital of Japan and is the most traditional city in Japan. (factoid- there is a building code in central Kyoto not allowing any buildings to be over 5 stories […]

35mm: I took this photo in Bali while I was traveling through south east Asia. I don’t know the name of the place but I call it Rice Valley.

35mm: While in Bali I had noticed that this Lotus flower would open up every night near midnight. It was as if, it was showing off its it’s beauty, it’s creative dance, it’s symmetry to me… I was blown away by it’s graphic and unblemished petals.. I noticed it was ‘working’ at night.. It got […]

While in the meat packing district.. We headed to the High Line Park.. What a smart way to use up space.. “The High Line was originally constructed in the 1930s, to lift dangerous freight trains off Manhattan’s streets.”   “When all sections are complete, the High Line will be a mile-and-a-half-long elevated park, running through […]

After our Spring 2010 campaign showing. We headed over to our buddy Siki’s presentation over in the meat packing district. The energy at Siki’s presentation was amazing.. The presentation was inside dimly lit almost abandoned meat locker/warehouse with kids playing tribal-esque drums, people snapping photos left and right and lots of people with smiles on […]

Went over to Milk studios for the Band of Outsiders, and Shipley & Halmos presentations.. It was drizzling outside and there was a little drama at the door from people trying get inside from the rain…. But once inside.. It was just the opposite from the outside..???.  Outside was cool and wet.. and inside was […]

LA’s in the middle of a heat wave and a fire storm, literally. As the evenings have been coming around this week we’ve been heading to the beach to watch the sunset over Malibu… Absorbing and watching sunsets like these in the mist of all the mayhem allows you to see that things are not […]
