Fooling around on getting shots with reflections.

I saw these two guys getting ready for an April Fool's prank and asked if I could take their picture. He really blends in with the bush!

Ok, it's a crummy self-portrait, but hear me out.

One of my favorite "fools" from literature is Till Eulenspiegel, who I am trying to depict with my funny hat and crazy expression. Till was quite a guy in the Middle Ages. His pranks and jokes would often expose the foolishness and vices in others around him. With his the translation of his last name being "owl mirror," Till represents wisdom and and exposure. He was not a popular guy. Till can be seen today as a the stereotypical fool: floppy hat, bells, and pied outfits. I prefer him with his tradtional hat, though, long with a tassel.

See, a degree in German CAN pay off.

By the light of the fluorescent bulbs shining down on my cube.

Just call me Little Merry Sunshine.

A photo of Makayla taken while Aunt Tammy was visiting us a few weeks ago. Makayla just loved posing for Tammy and then seeing the results on the back of the point-and-shoot.

Fool For Love 2005

The Fools Parade.

New years eve, and drunken fools, the swedish way.

These fools were so drunk, they didnt even notice that I was photographing them with the flash. They were a danger to themselves and to others. I sure hope they blew up. See the notes.

Our first real promotional item. I got a bag of 200 of these in the mail today. Clayton Delrin Duraplex .73 nylon picks with the logo on one side. It made me smile when I opened the package.
