There is nothing a 7 year old boy wants more than to be like his dad. Check out my manly physique. Ribs like that don't come easy!
This was over xmass in Durango Colorado in 07 I think. Mikey jumped in the snow and i made this snow penis for her. Our snowmobile guide was amused.
This is one of the letters that I received from Coach John Jardine the Summer of 1977. He was fired that Fall and replaced by Dave McClain. I walked-on as a punter.
An old photograph taken with a borrowed Canon EOS 300D before I got my own digital camera. This is my old Canon EOS 5, with a rented Canon 70-200mm f/2.8L (the old, non-IS version).
Recently picked up my old friend, the flute. I used to be in love with this. Sadly, I stopped during college. I wish I played more. Luckily I have not forgotten everything, but my technique is suffering. I used to be first flute in wind ensemble. i'm getting all nostalgic ;( perhaps ill start up again, doing my exercises.
i love the sound of my instrument. its sweet but powerful. soft but strong. touching but killer.
I remember how hard this shot was. Back in the day to overexpose certain parts of the picture you had to use your hands and cover up areas that required different exposing. But the hand swivel was key becasue otherwise you ended up getting a hard line break in your picture, which never very appealing!
Again, these are all pictures I shot way back when....over 15 years ago...that all won some type of award or recognition. I found the last time I was at my parents house a couple weeks ago and they brought back SUCH memories. Ah the good ol days - when the word "digital" was unheard of, we all had to be really careful about how many times we clicked because film cost money, we had to know the purpose and function of every button on the camera, nothing was easy, there was no manipulation on a computer, you had to lock yourself in a tiny pitch black hole to get your film on a spinning reel (which was the hardest thing to do - one time it took me a whole hour!), the dark room was the "coolest" place to be, black and white was the way to go because color machines were WAY too expensive, techniques to pictures were done with chemicals, hand manipulations or dark room accidents, sepia was a chemical not a button, there was no need to smoke anyhing because the fumes from the chemicals causes enough giddiness, and there was an assembly line for photo processing in public dark rooms, contact paper was king, matting was hard work and corners always suffered...or your finger suffered, physical presentation mattered just as much as the quality of the photo, .....should I keep going? I hope people are getting nostaligic WITH me....rather than saying - my GOD she is old!!! :-) Anyway, these prints are still in good shape so I thought I would digitally capture them with and without the matting so they stay "alive" forever! HAIL the good ol days - I would bring them back in a heartbeat. I still want a dark room in my basement one day!

Kingston Green Fair... (Early 90's?)
Richard did ask me to do the first record with this band but the recording dates clashed with a load of work I had in the U.S. that was impossible for me to postpone. Consequently I was away and couldn't do the sessions, regrettably missing out on the recording of one of my favourite Richard Sinclair songs; 'Keep on Caring'... I remember the material we played as being relaxed and highly melodic, always fun to work with and I wrote a couple of things specifically for this combo.
