I had the oppurtunity to go down to Pittsburgh PA and photograph the Meeting of the Marked tattoo convention. It was a ton of fun and like entering a completely different world. I'm super stoked to go back next year.
Not exactly a photo but I found this piece of paper I cut out of the SF phonebook 20 years ago and just scanned it.
I moved to SF in 87. So this is my 20th year here in the city and I have seen a lot of changes during that time. I drove my motorcycle across country and after a short stay in SoCal ended up here. Looking through the phone book and seeing my name on a Motorcycle shop may have contributed on my choice to stay. Unfortunately I didn't actually make it out to that shop until the fall of 87. That Dave Golden had just passed away and the shop was preparing to close, so I never had the oppurtunity to meet him.
A cherished project of mine to capture and document the life by the gigantic river Brahmaputra that enters India in the north-eastern frontier state of Arunachal, travels through Assam and has its confluence with the ocean in Bengal.
I have been having discussions with quite a few eminent who have been born an brought up on the banks of this river. I have just started the project as I my work has started taking me to Dibrugarh University where I have become a catalyst to empower the youth of Assam. It is a blessing.
First of the dancers who have been kind to participate are two students, Sattriya dancers, from centre of performing arts at DU - Bhagyashree Senapati and Purasmita Bordoloi; Also I had an oppurtunity to capture.a bunch of youth who do their physical training on the banks of Brahmaputra, The fishermen's village that lives on Brahmaputra

Taken at the start of the womens tour 2014 in Oundle, Unfortunatley (or fortunatly dependant of your view point) I got stuck in a traffic jam due to the rolling road closures for 20min, so took the oppurtunity to grab the camera and get some shots as they passed by

Sorry for such a delay in uploads. Actually I didn't have my camera with me. But now I have a couple of good photographs coming up on Flickr in coming weeks. =]
Zuri wasn't feeling good and I took the oppurtunity to take photos of her while she didn't move a lot.
Chinese delegates representing universities in China came to visit Macquarie University. This was a fantastic oppurtunity to learn what sustainable intiatives are being undertaken and to exchange knowledge.

Marshall Leadership and Awards Seminar give cadets the oppurtunity to recieve guidance from some the Army's most senior leadership, while also networking and building relationships with their peers. | U.S. Army photo by Ian Ives, U.S. Army Cadet Command
This program benefits a lot of our elderly people. For instance, my great grandpa doesn't have to stay in the hospital to long because his doctor can consult with home health and set a plan in motion at his home. I know a lot of sick people had rather be in the comfort of their own home, than in a hospital. I think if a lot of them had one wish in the hospital, it would be to go home. Home health gives them this oppurtunity. I greatly appreciate everything they do for my family, and others. Home health is a great service that is provided to Eastern Kentucky.

My distant relative cousin, Class mate, my sister best friend, Vijetha got married this Dec 11. Got some oppurtunity to get shot of her.
I met Hakim aka Pemburu Cinta, one half of Sampah Masyarakat (literally means Dregs of Humanity, I think...) while on a photoshoot in downtown KL. Here he is pictured with Nazri. I bumped into him from time to time sans camera, so I take this oppurtunity for a qwik snapshot then he was away. There will be a "proper" session soon *winks*

Tom Hall played at Harvest Sessions on Saturday, October 20 from 10:00 a.m. until noon. Harvest Sessions is presented by KDHX Community Media, The Whitaker Foundation and Tower Grove Farmers' Market and takes place every Saturday at the West Pool Pavilion in Tower Grove Park for the duration of Tower Grove Farmers' Market's regular season. Tom Hall has been performing for over twenty years and has won national and local acclaim for his exceptional blues guitar work. Harvest Sessions is free and open to the public.
Tom Hall has played in countless bands, but his solo performances truly capture audiences. He wanders through the sounds of Argentina, Ireland and Africa, but he always returns to his musical roots. When he is playing Mississippi-inspired blues, he shines like his signature National guitar. If you have not yet seen Hall play live, don't miss this oppurtunity to catch one of St. Louis' most talented artists.
The 2007 inaugural season of Harvest Sessions has featured great concerts from local and regional performers. With Tower Grove Farmers' Market as the backdrop, Harvest Sessions also hosted an International and Children's Series that proved very popular in the community. KDHX Community Media, The Whitaker Foundation and Tower Grove Farmers' Market are proud to sponsor this free concert series on Saturday morning.

It is moments in time, like this one, that makes us stop and take notice. Such amazing beauty...such innocence!
I never leave an oppurtunity that beckons me to freeze a frame in time. And, this one came along when I least expected it. I was audience to my little nephew's annual sport's day at school, when this charming Turkish angel happened to catch my interest. She was being escorted by her mother, an amazing woman herself, to the participant's area. And, somehow, I could not hold myself to go clicking!
Pritzl would say, "The Titan pulling the old Lund."
Headed up to Fish Lake which is just north of Duluth MN. It is a great lake to get out on and enjoy some good fishing and boating oppurtunities. Annie, Oliver and I had a great day on the lake.

For those of you that don't know this, I was born and raised in Denham Springs, Lousiana. This is relevant regarding this photograph. When a couple get's married and at the reception after the traditional dance with the Mother Father dances, we have the Pin Money Dance. A Pin Money Dance is an opportunity for the NewlyWeds to receive gift money from the guests. It can range from $1 to however much you would like it to be. The guests receive pins/needles from a designated person and then they stand in line to dance with either the Bride or the Groom. When it's their turn they get to pin the money anyplace that they want. That is one of the reasons the young man in the photo is smiling, he was to shy to pin the money on the bride. You might recognize him as the young man who caught the garter belt in a previous photo. The garter belt throw was after this photograph was taken. I love this tradition for the main reason after all the wedding preparations and expenses, a newlywed couple is broke and will have to eat rice or some equally cheap fare everynight. This tradition is fantastic, this newlywed couple took home over $400.00 in gift money. This was a small wedding/reception, so you know they appreciated it. All the guests really enjoyed this tradition. It was novel and unique and gave every guest an oppurtunity to dance/ speak with the Bride and the Groom. Sometimes that is very hard to do at at a wedding.

Chicago's Chinatown was pretty cool. It should be a must stop on any trip to Chicago. There was such an array of photo oppurtunities here, it merits a trip back soon.
Cornhill Feb 2nd 1957.Parking in town centre,and even a few available spaces! We've got a fairly nice group of different buildings around a town square,but never really exploit this oppurtunity.Just looking at the 20th Century pictures its always flat,bare and boring,I think it needs some kind of centre piece.Or what?
Scenic Mechs - The beauty of having bike trouble in the hills is that its just another oppurtunity to make another picture. This is the view from the place that we tried to fix the carb intake manifold. With insulation tape, no less. Hopes.

The train, the train! (It's a joke from a TV show in the 70s, kiddies-if you don't get it, you're a young whippersnapper!) Anyhow, one of the little quickie marts had a sale where you can buy a pepperoni pizza and a 2 litre bottle of soda all for under $5! I took advantage of this oppurtunity, and drove a bit to a quiet spot to enjoy my meal. A train was there with its engine idling. PICTURE TIME!!! I took a BUNCH of shots, but i like the closeup superwide of the front best. What do you think? (BTW, at this point, i traveled a bit over 50 miles. I was above Harrisburg, but not quite up to Perry County)
I met John working in a lovely little sweet shop in my home town of Cobh. Initially I walked past and saw all the colours of the sweets. I asked him if he minded me taking a photograph. He was going to step to the side and I asked him to be included as it would be a better shot. After I told him about the 100 strangers project and he agreed to allow me use his photo.
John is originally from west Cork but now lives nearer to Cork city. He got an oppurtunity to manage the shop so now works in Cobh. He also informed me that he may not have agreed in the past to be in the photo but is more relaxed about it now. He even posed for me a second time as I messed up the first shot. Thanks John for being in my 100 strangers.

Hey you never know when you might need a Tardis Boarding Pass. I just want to be ready if the oppurtunity ever arises.

I took a break from my series today, as the oppurtunity to shoot this arose. This is Josh Ward-Brickett bonelessing the college 9-set. I don't think he actually landed this attempt, but made it on the next. I prefer this photo though :)
