Other Lands
The world. Give me an hour and I’ll show you the world. I’ve been lucky. I’ve been allowed to go to many places in this big old world. I will go to even more places this summer. New locations for me are Serbia, Austria and Ghent. I’ll work, for the first time, along the Southern…

What You Thought You Saw
There are two things that this photograph represents. A new technique that I’ve just mastered that sort of smushes the image and its color. So, I’m reworking many of my signature New Orleans pictures. And, two, I’m getting ready to do the deal with the art agency I mentioned a week or so ago. Of…

Little Mysteries
Mysteries within symbols within a taco. 619 is the area code for San Diego. The reflected image is found in the Lower Garden District of New Orleans. The reason that they are in the same frame is one of those mysteries to me. Another mystery of the OMG variety just happened two seconds ago. WordPress…

Cold, Cold, Cold
W hen I talk about photographing on assignment many people think it’s all glamour and excitement. Now, that I work in the background of making music I know that glamour is the last thing on anybody’s minds. It’s hard work and most of it sucks. Getting back to strictly photography, I once wrote that I…
