I'm a simple man I like simple things . .
- Completely self taught, so Peter Lik is a huge inspiration for me
- Born in San Pedro, CA on Oct 7th '80 which makes me a Libra
- Happiest while out on the road shooting
- Cant live without music
- I don't have 20/20 vision, but I have a good eye
- I love mexican & Italian food
- Youngest of three children
- I love action & comedy movies, as a matter of fact I'm watching Step Brothers right now
- I would love to travel to Hawaii & Australia
- I owe it all to my father for for helping me purchase my 1st D-SLR (Nikon D80)
- I love my family, & friends & I could never do it without them or you guys! Flickr has been a huge learning curve for me & I'm not finished learning so watch out!
- I use to work for IBM/Boeing
- I love the adrenaline of shooting something that could possibly take my life away for example last night @ royal palms, san pedro, ca - 30 second exposure almost washed me off the rocks, but I still managed to get my shot!
- I could never work a 9-5 which lead me into photography, and one day owing my own gallery. In the meantime I do everything from weddings to real estate, trying to sell fine-art prints or canvas on the side
- I use to hate roller coasters or anything of that nature & now you can't get me off them
- I live & breath Photography

Iguana in Nayarit state, about 2 and 1/2 hours north of Puerto Vallarta at Punta Custodio. A very very beautiful area next to a bird sanctuary and a 10 mile tortuga beach. And who doesn't love Mexican food?.........I know I know, it tastes like chicken. Evidently influx of Mexican natives from southern states in areas that they do eat these 'chicken of the trees' have markedly reduced the population in the PV area. Sad as they can be very colorful and beautiful.
This vegetarian was very cooperative and still for several shots with a mild telephoto. One of the brighter green patterns than others I have seen. Blow up the image to appreciate the sharpness of this hand held, very cheap Nikon lens!
Evelyn and I just got back from a week long trip to the wilds of Mexico. One area we visited had many beautiful waterfalls with amazing travertine formations. They reminded me of Havasupai Falls in the Grand Canyon. We even had these falls all to ourselves for the 3 hours we were there! It's definitely an area we'll need to return to someday since there is so much more we haven't seen. We loved Mexico - the scenery, the people, the food, and so much more!

Going through some of my old photos, and working and reworking them. I love this still life. It is one of the first works I created using off camera flash. I love food photography. I just love food. I love cooking and eating. I really love Mexican, and Southwest food. The chilies onion and the citrus. So much flavor. I love the contrasting light of this image. I love how the light goes through the bottle and gives an nice amber quality to the image.
We took a single strobe and held it on axis of her face for this image. I loved the beautiful blue water back there... the water. You are seeing the water aren't you?
Sheesh. Anyway, the single strobe simply balanced with ambient at the top of her and gradually feathered off toward her feet. This let the shadow from the backlit sun come forward.
The bees absolutely love Mexican Sunflowers, and never seem to mind my intruding on their meal.

"in the end
All you can hope for
Is the love you felt
To equal the pain
You've gone through
Bones
Starved in flesh
Surround your
Aching heart
Full of love"

We were sitting eating at Balam's fish stand in my old 'hood' in Puerto Vallarta when this caballero stopped to say 'hola'.
Gotta' love Mexico where the old and the modern still cross paths on a regular basis.
MUCHISIMAS GRACIAS A TODOS POR SU ATENCION!!
THANKS VERY MUCH EVERYONE FOR YOUR ATTENTION!!!
Hoy se celebra la independencia de mi país: México.
Sin embargo estamos viviendo una ironía pues hoy por hoy no hay independencia qué celebrar, voluntaria e involuntariamente somos cautivos de un régimen político que dista mucho de ser el de un país independiente, tenemos un sistema económico y social que deja por los suelos nuestra aclamada libertad en casi todos los sentidos.
No quiero que se confundan o se malentiendan mis palabras: Yo amo México, como a ningún otro lugar en el mundo. Y lo celebro a diario. Amo sus incontables maravillas naturales, sus pueblos encantadores, la modernidad de sus ciudades, el arte, la comida; no soy una persona de tradiciones pero me gusta ver como otras personas sí, la manera en que para ellos las tradiciones y costumbres se vuelven su estilo de vida, me gusta la cultura en general; amo las sonrisas, los sueños y la esperanza de cosas mejores que veo en los rostros de la gente y justamente por eso escribo esto... Estamos contaminados de injusticia, de desigualdad y de maltrato a nuestra persona.
No estoy en contra de la celebración por nuestro país, sólo estoy diciendo que deberíamos tener motivos reales para hacerlo y hoy menos que nunca no tenemos motivos para celebrar, pero sobran razones para luchar por nuestros derechos y bienestar de manera pacífica pero constante, con fuerza pero sin violencia hasta alcanzar lo que hace tiempo se nos concedió y hemos venido perdiendo en el transcurso de los años: Libertad.
The independence of my country today is celebrated: Mexico.
But we are living an irony because today there is no independence to celebrate, voluntary and involuntarily we are captives of a political regime that is far from the one of an independent country, we have an economic and social system that put in floor our acclaimed freedom in almost every way. I do not want to be confused or misunderstand my words: I love Mexico more than any other place in the whole world. And I celebrate every day. I love its countless natural wonders, the charming villages, the modernity in the cities, the art in all expressions, the food... i¡m not a person of traditions but i do love to see how other people does, how they embrace that and how traditions and customs are their lifestyle, i like culture in general; I love the smiles, dreams and hope for better things I see on the faces of the people and that's exactly why I'm writing this ... We are contaminated of injustice, inequality and mistreatment of our people.
I'm not against the celebration for our country, i'm just saying we should have real motives to do it...
And today more than ever we don't have any motive to celebrate, but there's a lot of reasons to fight for our rights and welfare in a peaceful way but steadily, strongly but without violence, to achieve retain what years ago has been given to us and we've been losing over the course of the years: Freedom.
Luche tanto mi vida por mostrarte
Que significas todos mis suenos,
Pero tienes miedo de que cada cosa
que hago sea alguna idea diabolica
en contra tuya.
Los recuerdos de tu vida pasada
se interpone entre los dos y nos aleja,
como liberar tu mente de las desconfianzas
y dudas para asi poder derretir tu
frio frio corazon.
Otro amor antes de mi
dano tu alma y te entriztecio
y ahora mi corazon esta pagando
esas cosas que no hice yo.
Con palabras de ira y resentimiento Expreso.....
Con palabras que hacen mis lagrimas brotar
como liberar tu mente de las descomfianzas y dudas
para asi poder derretir a tu
frio frio corazon....

I love Mexican and South American culture. The colors and patterns blow me away. I was on a Mexican folk art site and got all reinspired. This is the result. I had an old desk from my mother's childhood that was falling apart and so before throwing it out, I kept the drawers and put them in my "gotta paint on that" someday pile. It's been over a year and this skull guy seemed perfect for the distressed wood drawer. Now I want to do more of these.
