Description: I am finally processing more of the pictures I took from my trip to Bolivia and Peru in the summer of 2007.  I cropped down the original to get the perspective I desired on this one. This man was sitting in the small village we visited on Taquile Island.  He was minding his own […]

Description: This shot was a bit hard to capture as there were constantly people going up and down the escalator here.  I specifically wanted one person in the image and did not have all day to stick around.  I was hoping to capture a little more blur in the passerby, but I did not have […]

I recently started the Black and White Dollar Portrait (BW$P) Project. The gist is, I will offer anyone who asks me for money $1 in exchange for their portrait. Every portrait I take will be converted and processed in black and white. This project is a spin off of Thomas Hawk’s $2 Portrait Project. Meet […]

I can hear a million keyboards typing away  writing a similar post as I am writing now. Regardless, I still wanted to share my first impressions of FriendFeed in Real-Time. For those that have not checked out FriendFeed yet, you really should.  I have written a few post about it already and, as they continue […]

I’ve seen a couple post recently on Louis Gray’s blog referring to the blogosphere as mini-Hollywood (both written by contributing authors) or, as in the most recent post, “Valleywood.” Now seriously, does anyone really care? Is anyone paying attention? I’m going to have to say no, except for those inside the blogosphere. The majority of […]

Description: As a little kid, I was always fascinated by pinwheels.  When I see one or play with one these days, I can’t help myself but smile and remember my childhood and remember how simple life used to be. On a photographic note, I’ve always been obsessed with the Golden Gate Bridge (who isn’t).  It’s […]

Sorry for the delay on this post, but I thought it was still important to write about and spread the word.  With the financial crisis and the election going on, I feel like this story will be buried and ignored too easily. If you missed my previous post, I let you know about Jim Nachtwey’s […]

The American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP) held their annual Out of the Darkness Community Walk just over a week ago and I was asked to volunteer my photography services to them.  The Out of the Darkness Community Walks raise money to help support research to improve the understanding of biological, genetic and psychosocial factors […]

Description: This shot was not as planned out as it may seem.  After taking a dozen or so pictures of these meters, I realized I really like how it looked when there was some blur from the cars behind them.  After waiting around awhile waiting for the next set of cars to come by, it […]

The Crohn’s and Colitis Foundation of America (CCFA) had their 12th annual California Wine Classic last week to raise money for medical research and support programs.  I have been volunteering my photography services to CCFA for a year or two now and have a great time at every event. Till next time…

I’m not sure how I have missed TED all of these years.  Taken directly from their about page, “The TED Prize is designed to leverage the TED community’s exceptional array of talent and resources. It is awarded annually to three exceptional individuals who each receive $100,000 and, much more important, the granting of ‘One Wish […]
