Jo Jo and Fay
Friday, August 22nd, 2008
I’m in Tampa. Came down here to get my daughter started on her sophomore year at University of Tampa. Tropical Storm Fay seems to have been avoiding us on this trip. We drove through Jacksonville before Fay arrived, just catching a little rain from the fringe of the storm. Since we’ve been in Tampa Fay […]
Sheba of the Mountains
Wednesday, August 20th, 2008
Here’s another shot of Sheba at Silvergate, just outside of Yellowstone National Park. This was in an area that had burned several years ago in a fire that nearly reached the town of Silvergate. You can see the forest coming back to life. The fire actually produced some new beauty and refreshed the forest. And, […]
Flower Child
Saturday, August 16th, 2008
Went to a local lake at dawn today with the lovely Athena who has recently started figure modeling and had promised to pose for me if she ever did that. I’ve known Athena for a while. She is a truly lovely person and a very talented photographer in addition to being a fine model. She’s […]
Back Home
Saturday, August 2nd, 2008
I’m home again. Got here Wednesday night after two very long 12-hour days of driving. Other than being tiring, the drive home was uneventful after leaving Alliance and Carhenge. Now I’m just trying to catch up on all the things that went undone while I was away. It was a fantastic trip, the best photo […]
Beartooth Pass
Sunday, July 27th, 2008
I’m having a quiet day in Glenwood Springs today. A much needed rest and recharge day. Kimothy called this morning to say that she wasn’t feeling up to doing a second shoot today. All the posing and stretching had left her with some soreness that needed rest. And with the pace I’ve been keeping on […]
Aspen Independence
Saturday, July 26th, 2008
Independence Pass that is. This morning Brooke and I got up very early and drove to Aspen where we picked up Kimothy and then we all went up to the top of Independence Pass to do a few photos. That’s Kimothy at the top beside an alpine lake near the top of the pass. I […]
Red Rock
Friday, July 25th, 2008
Brooke had been saying on this trip that she wanted to shoot on some red rock. Well, she remembered a place…Red Rocks Park in Denver…so we went there at dawn this morning. There were a lot of people there, even that early in the morning. This place is really in Denver…or at least right on […]
Washed Up
Thursday, July 24th, 2008
That’s Blue Sheba and Brooke Lynne on the rocks beside a mountain stream just outside Silvergate. Brooke and I had a good day of travel and shooting today. Rocky Mountain National Park was a bit of a disappointment. Much too busy for any figure work to be possible in any of the more interesting places. […]
Brooke by a brook
Wednesday, July 23rd, 2008
Well, it’s not really what I’d call a brook. More of a raging mountain stream. Another place that was within a short walk of our cabin in Silvergate. I like the way the water is becoming something of an abstraction, maybe even a sort of swirling cosmos or something. And I finally found a reason […]
Best Laid Plans…
Friday, July 18th, 2008
Well, the air conditioner on my truck being broken is a bigger problem than I thought at first. Seems the bearing on the compressor has gone bad. That means it could seize up…will seize up at some point…and that would destroy the serpentine belt that drives all the other engine accessories like the alternator. So […]
