2009 Calendars
Friday, October 17th, 2008
I’ve just finished publishing my calendars for 2009. They are now available for order here in my store at Lulu. If you click on one of the cover photos here it should take you directly to the page where you can order that calendar. You’ll note that there are two versions of each of the […]
Because I’m here
Monday, October 6th, 2008
And I don’t know when I’ll next have internet access, here’s another photo from Death Valley. That’s Vima looking sensational in the ruins not far from Badwater…the lowest place in North America, if I remember correctly. Again, I’ll check in and post as I have the chance over the next week…but no telling in advance […]
Long Time Gone
Saturday, October 4th, 2008
Sorry for the extended absence from posting. It’s been a bit busy since I returned from Death Valley. Much of my time has been spent dealing with post-Ike storm recovery. Just today I was finally able to talk with the insurance claims adjuster who set an appointment to come to our home and review the […]
After Ike
Friday, September 26th, 2008
I’ve been pretty swamped since I got home. My redeye flight from LA was way overbooked…something like 20 seats overbooked. I volunteered to give up my seat and got a voucher and a hotel for the night. But it was midnight before I made it to the hotel and my new flight was at 6 […]
More Big Dune
Monday, September 22nd, 2008
Here’s NevaehLleh sprucing up Big Dune. Later today…actually tonight…I’ll be catching a redeye back to Ohio. Had a good day Sunday at the Original Farmers Market meeting friends and drinking Guarana’ from the Brazilian restaurant downstairs from the room where I sat around. By the way, that drink is pronounced Guaw-ah-nah, not Guaw-awn-ah like they […]
Big Dune
Sunday, September 21st, 2008
Driving along the road east of Death Valley we saw a sign with an arrow that simply said “Big Dune.” And looking in the direction of the arrow, there it certainly was…a big dune. So we stopped to shoot. It was well worth the stop. This is Vima adding a little foreground interest to the […]
Titus Canyon
Saturday, September 20th, 2008
As is often the case, I had my models climbing the walls while we were shooting. In this case Vima and Neva are climbing the wall of Titus Canyon in Death Valley…and looking quite sensational while doing it, I must say. We didn’t do a lot of hiking in Death Valley. It had cooled off […]
The Moon Sets Over the Amargosa
Saturday, September 20th, 2008
While we were shooting in Death Valley and the surrounding area we stayed at a wonderful place, The Amargosa Hotel and Opera House in Death Valley Junction, just outside the park. You can read the very interesting story of the Amargosa and its owner, Marta, on its web site. I had hoped to meet Marta […]
Rules Are Made To Be Broken
Friday, September 19th, 2008
I’m in Los Angeles after 4 wonderful days of shooting in and around Death Valley. It was a great trip, largely because of the fantastic models who went out in the desert with me. NevaehLleh and Vima just did a fantastic job day after day in the heat and sun, on the rocks and in […]
