    This video has been going around since the beginning of the week. I think it is freaking amazing. I have talked about it with a few people, and apparently a lot of people still haven’t seen it. So, I’m re-posting. It was shot with a 5D MkII in 1080. So, feel free to check it…

    Now that I’m looking at these images all in the same post, I’m getting a kind of morbid vibe. That wasn’t my initial intention. It is just some more stuff that I shot last week, and wanted to share. All three of these works were featured in galleries exhibiting at Pulse. The painting on the…

    Reagan wasn’t working today, so we picked up and visited Piper together. We arrived right around lunch time. So, what better idea than bring Piper to the dining room for lunch? She was getting her little lunch through her G-tube while Reagan, Sam and I had boring normal people food. Above: Sam keeping Piper occupied…

    As promised, here is the first big super exciting giveaway. Instead of attracting more readers, it might actually drive some away. But the purpose is to show some love to those who do read.

    It has been a rough couple of days, following the holiday. I have been stuck at the office basically non-stop since then. I did, however, take the opportunity to stop off at Houston St. on the way home last night and snap a couple of shots of the new Kenny Scharf mural going up. Also,…

    The photo above is a bit anachronistic, if I were to order things according to the title of this post. But I really, really like it. So there it is (at the top). Friday night, I was running around like crazy person trying to get some stuff shot before galleries closed, etc.. The last thing…

    And I’m about to get busier. Things have really picked up at my real job, which is awesome. The only down side is that I have had to hustle like crazy to fit in my fake jobs. Some cool stuff that I have shot this week, starting at the top: Tara Machperson at the Jonathan…

    I had myself a pretty busy little evening, last night. But it ended up being well worth hiking all over the island in the rain. First stop was Chelsea, to shoot El Mac working on his mural for his solo exhibit “The Humble and Sublime,” which opened at the Joshua Liner Gallery last night. I…
