A human person who likes photography, bicycles and cats and dogs.
Just watched a gaggle of geese mess up traffic in False Creek and it is destined to be a great highlight of my day, maybe week. So punk, zero fucks given.

Right from three week cough into allergy season. Here we go, I'll just be involuntarily crying for a month.

Scanning and editing work from ~17 years ago, a time pivotal for my personal development.

It's difficult to tell the difference between nostalgia and quality of an image. Do I love these frames for their intrinsic, photographic value? Or because these moments were important to me personally?

I didn't know what I was getting into. The first alleycats I photographed I didn't know anyone, hell I didn't really know what an alleycat was and I was barely a messenger for a whole summer at that point.

I'm beginning to compile scans and photographs of my cycling life of the last 17 years.

The waterfall that only the rain can bring.

I had to wait 20mins for the clouds to clear just enough so the falls that drape over the granite would be visible.

F11, .8sec, iso100.

Dave's legs at Jeremy's Roubaix, Pitt Meadows BC.

I have a lot of photographs of Dave teaching that I love, but this portrait is my favourite.

The Gargoyles. One of them. Summer 2023.

I've been thinking about work lately. Both too much of it and never enough.

Gratefully And regrettably.

Today we’re remembering the legacy of Ansel’s dear friend & fellow artist Maynard Dixon on the 150th anniversary of his birth (January 24, 1875).

Ansel visited Dixon at home in Tucson a year or so before he passed away, & made this poignant, intimate image during an impromptu portrait session.

Hopefully processing my BW version today or Sunday night.
The #blackandwhite version of #SkyPilot from the other day. We found a decent overlook at the top of the gondola but had to rush back to get the last download of the night.

"Secret" "Sauna" 2.

You can find out how I made this image by checking out my new YouTube channel. This was shot back in October, a few weeks after I was laid off, and I had a grand idea of creating more than consuming, so here we are.

Jamie Hooper, at brunch after he rode the Sea to Sky trail from Squamish to Pemberton over a few days. I met him on his last day returning to Squamish halfway into town, we rode back together and stopped for brunch.

Today's last test, a portrait of my father shot in my backyard this Summer (June, 2024).

I had this shot in mind for almost two years while I waited for my folks to come visit again. Shot on 4x5 in my backyard.

Here we go, continuing a test of this Broadcast Network. I shared this on the other platform for an algorithm to ignore. Sooo.. here goes nothing over here?

Shot on the Squamish river very close to my home.

I'm not entirely sure what I'm doing here on this new app. I'm definitely a little burnt out in social media, so I'm not sure if the solution is... more? Different?

Here's a photograph shot two summers ago on a big camera.
