Springtide Fairytale

This set, photographed by the wonderful George Streng, in Sacramento, is now up at $5+Enjoy. XO.

Have you ever seen these lovely images?I made these a few years ago with my dear friend George Streng, in Sacramento.In all honesty, I do not miss touring or the modeling industry as a whole, but there are a few artists I certainly do miss, and hope to create with in the future, just because. George is one of those people.George is one of the most delightfully creative humans I've ever met. He's always dreaming up something new and differ...

Last Bits.

Hurricane beauties with Photosensualis.In a few days, maybe something completely different.Suggestions? Requests?

A Few More...

Hi! I'm sorry for disappearing for a little bit. With spring and the increasing availability of vaccines, the newspaper has picked up, and I've been doing editing and publishing as well because the office is working with a skeleton crew. So I've had my hands quite full.In any case, here I am! I hope you all are finding a little joy in each day. For me, it's the hyacinths and daffodils in bloom. Oh, and I have a cat now, and now ha...

Tempest Revisited

Every year or two I resurrect the Tempest series.It's a powerful poem based on a powerful series of images made with Photosensualis during a Hurricane in 2016.As luck would have it, I broke down between St. Augustine and Tallahassee, where I was traveling to shoot. The AAA driver graciously fudged the numbers so that I would be covered for the entire tow (a little over 300 miles!) I rode in the tow truck with this man, who was a young war vet...

Tempest Revisited

Tempest RevisitedI refuse to crouch and cowerBeneath a dark, shrouded truthBeneath a bad, harrowing moonBefore a cloaked, sinister sun.I will tear, furiously,Those delusory robesFrom her deceitful modesty,And batheIn the nudity of her rain.I will danceIn the faithfull blows of veracity.I will not be crippledWhile there is all this infinite,Fathomless highwayPandering so eagerly underfoot;I will crawl.While these mountains do standIn the starkness...

Four Fathoms - a fragment

You were a strong armed loverLearned in the song of your motherImpatiently, you croonedIllustrated by the woundsLeft by the harms of some otherAnd I am the storm of a centuryA windswept form in an endless seaSurely, you could drownIn all my rain, come falling downBut I want to see you swim to meIf you were four fathoms deepWith the tide too steepWould you lay your body downAnd let the ocean make you sleep?Four fathoms deepIn all the tears I would...

Some Color

I've been posting a lot of b&w lately, so I thought I'd throw in a splash of color.These images were taken at sunset on the first evening of the very last TDA session.TDA - The Desert Adventure - was a fine art photo retreat I operated with a partner (Capt. John Gorecki) in the beautiful backcountry landscapes of Moab.These images were snapped by John while our photographers were shooting the inimitable Liv Sage.Fun fact: there was a part...

Oops!

These were supposed to go up yesterday!Tuesday is publishing day for my paper. I’m one of a skeleton crew who work in actual production since Covid struck.I had to do my work remotely from Virginia, which made for a long, exhausting day.I‘m now on my way home to Jersey after a nice, brief stay with family. But these images were made in NorCal on a sunny, warm day, by Photosensualis.Here’s hoping they are pretty enough to make up for being l...

Simple Days

I'm spending a few days visiting my family in Virginia, most of whom I have not seen since Thanksgiving 2019. We celebrated a late Christmas together yesterday. It was lovely. Today we are going to the Appomattox Court House.It's a cold, dreary day here, and I'm dreaming of warm coastlines and making simple, natural images with my favorite photographers, Photosensualis.These images were made in 2018 in Northern California.More up tomo...
