On the Dal House Forum we're celebrating Dal's 10th anniversary all year long with various monthly events. For July we're making stamps. I grabbed some of my fav Dal photos and turned them into stamps using BigHugeLabs stamp framer: bighugelabs.com/frame.php
I need one that lets me do portrait oriented photos, because I don't see any option to change the orientation on framer and instead it crops it. That didn't work for some of the photos I wanted to use.
Extras, waiting patiently between takes, in an Anti-American riot sequence set in the Sudan after the Clinton administration bombed a pharmaceutical plant which faulty intelligence had identified as a chemical weapons plant.
Over a year ago I started work in Los Angeles, Toronto, London and Morocco on a six hour mini series based on the 9/11 Commission Report. The docudrama tries to accurately present the chronological weaving of known facts from the first World Trade Center bombing in 1993 that lead ultimately to the events on 9/11. The mini series with a cast of over 250 actors stars Harvey Keitel as John O'Neill....an FBI agent who 'knew" what was about to happen and who died ironically and tragically along with thousands of others (at the Pentagon and in Pennsylvania) in the collapse of the World Trade Center towers.
During prep and production I tried not to reveal in my image posts on Flickr any information that might make our production presence in Morocco on this politically sensitive project visible or vulnerable. Tangier and Ouarzazate in Morocco were used for sequences that took place in Yemen, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Sudan and Kenya. We now start the daunting task of five months of post production, editing close to a million feet of film shot with up to seven cameras, to make a May airdate on ABC.
The image above and others that I can post now that we have wrapped after 85 days of production, were taken during our shoot in Morocco and are images specific to making the movie.
Sun filtering down onto a lily flower, which happened to rest on a lily pad, making for some interesting lighting.

This was one picture I wish I had managed to get the entire bird in the frame....but I loved the moment so worth keeping anyway :)
Just as I had finished shoveling the driveway… this guy comes around to give me an early Christmas present: a new snow bank. • POTD 359/366

Between Blossom and Gaze – Making Of
This image came to life not just through light and framing — but through Beata’s own touch. Before the first shot was taken, she gently adorned the camera lens with wildflowers. It wasn’t planned, it wasn’t directed — it was her idea, her way of shaping the moment.
What followed wasn’t just a portrait, but a shared creation. Beata stood before a lens that she had made her own, turning a technical object into something soft and alive. The floral detail became more than decoration: it became a symbol of trust, collaboration, and creative intuition.
“Between Blossom and Gaze” starts here — with a gesture that speaks quietly, but profoundly.
Early morning shot taken from my table as I ate 'Chorizo con Huevos, a chicken taco, and a flour tortilla. Las Cuatro Milpas has been opening its door since 1933. They are busy making tortillas by hand and a large pot of pinto beans is being steered.
This morning we first in line!

A DAY IN THE LIFE
The three amazing lady drummers of the Matsuriza drum show that takes place on the pagoda of the Japan pavilion in World Showcase at EPCOT Center. I wish my shooting location was just a little bit better so that the drummer on the left didn't have her head resting on the post.

Thanks for looking! I appreciate feedback.
