Ashley's legwarmers.
London 2004. Gelatin Silver Print.

Today while organizing my new office/creative space I found a box of Ilford Paper labled "Test Strips and Extras" Inside I found a random assortment of black and white prints from my darkroom in London. This was one of the jems I discovered. A snapshot of my good friend Ashley lounging in her stripped leg warmers when she visited me from the states.

Self Portrait

Last week I photographed Adeline and I with the selftimer on my camera. The first shot turned out to be the best. But enjoy the others....

These outakes crack me up. Note, she has her toy camera during the shoot and while the timer was ticking she would take my picture, but each time drop her camera for the shot. I think it's time to take my friend Amanda's advice and load some film in one of my older cameras and let Adeline take real photos!

Bitter Bag

While waiting for the food to come out this was my light test shot. I was at the Windbag doing a small piece for Signature Montana Magazine's next issue. Love the color of that beer and the long shadows. It's like the beer is telling us...Fall is coming...

Trading the full moon for a rainbow

I set out Friday after dinner to photograph the full moon rising over the Spokane Hills. However, the weather had a different plan for me. It was stormy, raining and God blessed the Helena Valley with a beautiful rainbow. As I drove from the valley to the Gates of the Mountains I felt like the rainbow followed me. I pulled over to the side of the road often as I found vistas that inspired me. Spoiler alert...if you go to my web site you'll see a photograph of the rainbow above Holter Lake with a bolt of lightning!! I love summertime storms.
