Day 131

in

speaking of awesome people from seattle who have the last name phelps, here is my long time friend from college, the brilliant azurae. the kind of person who adds a million to life just by being around.

Day 129

in

By the way I have not given up I am just in the absolute middle of nowhere for mothers day and effectively have no real access. Consider this a place holder for the weekend. I have been shooting though. Thats the important part. In fact today while shooting my granddad and sister working the bees. Yep. Working the bees. I need to get a great shot of my gdad while I am here. Note to self: do that.

[ED]

back in town, have film..expecting more soon. AND I shot Lots this mothers' day weekend. 100% pumped about everything i shot. all family.

okay so here's beeje. trying to look intense and brooding maybe. who knows

Day 124

in

so today has been another day filled with feeding my farmer's tan and belly and playing scrabble on facebook.

took a fairly generic photo of the "southern most point" of the US. apparently a wee 90 miles to cuba. thinking about cuba makes me wanna watch scarface

perhaps i will come back later and plug that image in. maybe ill plug something else in this post. for now i am away from home so it waits..again.

but hey im still shooting.

[ed]

this shot is more about its importance to me rather than it being a great shot. its a small documentation of an important time in life. a short trip to atlanta.

Day 123

key west is spectacular, pretty much.

[ed]

random self shot. that is roughly how i looked and felt.

Day 122

in

so today is the third-of-the-way-there mark!

pretty exciting for me mostly because it means i have stuck to it for a long time...longer than anything else i've tried to do consistently in a while.

i am heading out to town tomorrow morning for a long weekend photographing in key west so updates may be more placeholders than anything. this may be a fact that goes more or less unnoticed but i figured i'd say it anyway.

anyway..most of the time i photograph jason he tries to act hard and then says he is trying to do an impression of me. what can i say, im a badass. kidding. seriously kidding.

so, much like Day 22 (today being day 122), here is jason wallis, laughing.

Day 120

in

well i am awaiting film to get back to me. i had a shot i was working on for today but i am not satisfied with it and i don't really want to post it, nor do i have other things at present to post. tried a couple of self portraits today but we'll see if they have any value. we'll see what comes in with the next round of stuff. until then, unless i shoot something digital specifically to post here, you may get a couple of placeholders. all 4 of you.

Day 113

in

i take this shot too often perhaps but i cant help it. maybe its that i've seen it for three years and its comfortable in a fairly weird life. who knows.

what i know is that i havent gotten the hell out of town nearly enough on my own terms lately. june, watch out.
