I was lucky enough to be in LA last Friday when the Space Shuttle Endeavour was moving from LAX to the LA Museum. It was amazing to see the shuttle that close. My only regret was not having my 40D with me.

One space lab, five spacecraft, 10 years of success. Nearly a decade ago, the Columbus laboratory set sail for humanity’s new world in space.
Shortly afterwards, the first Automated Transfer Vehicle (ATV) arrived at the International Space Station as the most reliable and complex spacecraft ever built in Europe.
The event was a unique opportunity to re-live some exciting milestones, connect live to the Station and look into space exploration plans.
The larger Columbus family of planners, builders, scientists, support teams and astronauts gathered in ESTEC, the Netherlands on February 7 2018 to celebrate the past, present and future of Europe’s major contributions to the Station.

High school and university students competed in the 2018 Human Exploration Rover Challenge event at the U.S. Space and Rocket Center in Huntsville, Alabama. Students came from across the U.S. as well as several foreign countries such as Brazil, Germany, India, and Mexico. This event, which is normally a 2 day event, was shortened to 1 day in 2018 due to adverse weather conditions.

The original rocket engines were removed while the shuttle was still in Florida, these are replicas or mockups. They were mounted on a gimble, and could be moed while in flight.

SPACES OF SILENCE
Visualizing Pruitt-Igoe Now
An amalgam of racial discrimination and heralding the ‘death’ of modernism, the Pruitt Igoe site is hallowed ground of sorts.
Thus it was not possible for this architect to conceive of a project that would be a complete break from the past. Rather a memorial to ending, with two buildings that speak of a possible future. That is why the project ‘SPACES OF SILENCE’ is designed around installations to modernity, a memorial and two buildings. The two buildings that flank this memorial are a vision to a sustainable future, and one to a past that is hopefully behind us.
‘Center for Sustainability Research’
‘Museum of Memory’.
The whole composition is set in a landscaped park that recalls, through the design of its pathways and the way green intermingles with void, the historicity of the site and of St. Louis. Harking back to the city’s French roots, the composition is a Baroque one, with the main axis through the site connecting the ground to the St. Louis Arch. Imprinted on the ground are monuments to modernity, with the footprints of the old Pruitt Igoe housing traced out in pathways, water pools, or planting.
The way this architect is connected to the Pruitt Igoe project is twofold. Firstly, as an enthusiast and committed member of the modern movement, and an historian who has followed the development of Modernism in the last decade. The second is as a scholar, whose doctorate in architecture at the University of Paris, Seine St. Denis was a sustained research into the location and temporal inexactitudes of the discourse of Modernism.
Through the dual axis, ‘Spaces of Silence’ is conceived as a homage to Modernism, as a place of solitude and silence, and as an effort in sustainable design and building.
Flying from Orcas to Seattle, the pilot was kind enough to fly me right down the city coastline. It wasn't the clearest day, but treat nonetheless.

I've got all my gear moved to a new space in SF. As you can see, there's tons of room to shoot... well, whatever.
Got a project? Get in touch with me.
More announcements regarding the studio coming soon.
