About

I am horrible at writing these things...

I consider myself a specialist of the glorified snapshot. Nowhere near talented enough to be featured in the spotlight, or get more than a note or two, but eager enough to get around my unnaturally high level of shyness to share my snapshots with the world.

All photos on this blog are taken by me, using a variety of photographic tools, from high priced DSLR to Pin Hole cameras made from beer cans.

I have recently relocated to the Santa Cruz area, only deepening my insatiable love for the San Francisco area as I'm able to explore many new areas. When not shooting with a still camera, I can be found toting around a TV camera.

Some of my favourite photographers:
Robert Capa
Robert Doisneau
Henri Cartier-Bresson
Berenice Abbott

Day 1 of the boys second swim meet went a little better than the first, he only scratched one of his three races, but he did take six or seven seconds off his times on both of his other races.

The boy managed to DQ 5 of his 8 events over the two day meet. The one race I figured he would do some damage, he lost his goggles on the turn and the home length suffered. It was a learning experience…

The way some people get amped up about the Superbowl or a Yankees-Red Sox series, is the way I get every two years when the Olympics fire up. I do everything in my power to watch as many hours as humanly possible. The internet is a gift from the Olympic gods… Can’t wait to hear that Olympic theme tonight.
The boy asked me, if he made the Olympic team would I watch him on TV. I said heck no, I’d be there to watch him. (Tokyo is one of the candidates for 2020, that would be kismet)
