Episode One: Pilot

A generationally definitive web-based media commodity for the progressive mind courtesy of my son, the film student and his associates.

A two dimensional slice of life

What exactly can be captured and expressed in a 1/200th of a second slice of such a long and hard life?

Hen

She showed up in our backyard on Halloween and if someone doesn't claim her soon she'll meet her maker via my digestive track.
Life's a bitch!

Turkey is full of stray cats

Cats are cute.
Cute sells.
I think i'll sell me some cat photographs.

Jones Soda wants me...

No, they want a photo I submitted in September of 2006.
All I know is I received an email while on vacation in Turkey telling me a photo I'd submitted nearly two years ago has been chosen for one of their bottles.
I'll take it.

[note: 8/13/08] Received (10) labels for Jones Berry Lemonade today with my photo and credit on it. So, if you're in the store and want to look, it's on the Berry Lemonade bottles.

Flowers

flowers are amazing things.
while watching a t.v. special on the origin of flowers
I learned that marijuana is the closest genetic match to the strawberry plant.
i love strawberries!

Not A Boy Named Sue

This is Lynn.


Lynn's been riding motorcycles since he was a little pup. These days he's riding a black '51 Harley panhead.
He delights in confounding people with the dichotomy between his appearance and his intellect. I once counted how many times he used the word "fuck" in the telling of a story - 45 variants of "fuck" in 5 minutes time. If you point it out to him, he can stop... just like that.

A neanderthal-looking, Harley-riding intellectual. Just one letter away from being a boy named "Lynne".

sunning on the Aegean

To be a photographer on vacation..... you don't return home with photos of the family posed in front of the Magic Castle at Disneyland with Mickey ears on their heads. You get images like this.... my lovely wife laying in the sun on our friend, Hakan's, sailboat off the west coast of Turkey.
