Still Life with Surfer


This is Sayulita in a nutshell: a surfer stands in contrast with the sombreros.

Beautiful Light, Cemetery




Here's another image from Sayulita.  This was taken in the cemetery on the road to Playa Los Muertos.

Sayulita



I was gone on vacation last week.  This is what I was shooting.  This is Sayulita, a quaint little traditional mexican town and a surfer's ideal destination.  I took this photograph on a vintage camera - a Zeiss Ikon.

Wide Format Fine Art Print at Pro Photo Supply


I just printed up this image of Arches National Park to hang in my lab at Pro Photo Supply.  We are promoting fine art printing this month by having a sale, so I decided to do a large print on Hahnemuhle Photo Rag Ultra Smooth paper, my favorite.  It looks amazing at 44x44 inches.  I took this photograph on a medium format film, so it has lots of detail.  The colors and texture of the red rock really stand  out on this fine art inkjet paper.  Come by our photo lab to check it out if you're in the area.  It's 1815 NW Northrup, Portland, Oregon.

Underwater Reflection


This is another image from my Underwater Series.  These  photographs were all taken underwater in swimming pools.

I love to see how the surface of the water distorts and reflects an object from below the surface.  In this image you are viewing the seated subject from below.  As you look up through the surface of the water you see both the reflection of her legs and, above it, the distorted image of her torso, which is above water.
