Last week I was sitting in the car waiting for a client to show up. All week it had been sunny and the early morning light was perfect for a shooting. Today however, as I sat in my car, the clouds opened up, the fog rolled in like a lumbering old man and a steady drizzle threatened to end the …
Cleaning out the Closet
Every so often I sit down at the computer and start wandering back through old photos. I used to do this when I was in grade school. In fact, I used to do it in high school, and college too. The old memories return, flooding my mind with emotion and seemingly lost events. I find it refreshing to reflect on …
Wandering 2/7/10

At The Hangar
This last week I had the opportunity to visit my buddy Steve at his office. It just so happens that his office is an airplane hanger that houses two pretty awesome jets.
