Found Part XVII

A great thing about the holiday season is that you go home and find all sorts of old things from your past.

A long, long time ago I was 6 years old. Things were simple and clear.


I like simple and clear. If only.

Best Music Video of 2008

From start to finish, this video is an absolutely beautiful and immaculate piece of work by director Encyclopedia Pictura.

Enjoy,

Meet Rosanne Smith. We used to be roomates in LA, now we are neighbors in Brooklyn. This sort of thing is common here, transplants are all over NYC. When I first met Rosanne I thought she hated me, then I realized she was just shy.

I took one of my favorite photos to date of Rosanne's backside as her and her dreamy boyfriend Nick slept on a cot together in the middle of the woods (she wore yellow underwear). That trip she helped us all free ourselves. She's really just a lion in tiny body.

we share the same birthday

One of three favorite mentors to date, Nelson Bakerman, always reminds me I have the same birthday as his old friend Helmut Newton. Life is good. Here's Helmut.

I can't recall if I've ever formally mentioned my friend Luis Farfan.

His brain is filled with great information and he takes great photographs of food. He somehow ties it all together here. Brilliant? Yes, I would say so.

He would consider this recognition and applause its demise, he is modest (and salty) like that.

Sometimes devastation

ends up being liberation!

Aging = finding the beauty in every experience good or bad, knowing that things really do happen for a reason.

Coincidence Part XII

I think they're not telling us something and they may come from the same mother.

strange ways

Not since Hussein Chalayan have I commented on a runway show. This one is more than qualified. Ladies and gents, the always intriguing and ahead, Henrik Vibskov. From back in February, I'm late on this one -
