Holga Love
I had a bunch of Holga films that I have been trying to get to scanning… I finally did…

Photo of the week | May 16 2009
The photo of the week this week is of a man reading his newspaper. Nothing special, nothing groundbreaking… I just like this image. Sometimes as I am walking around I wonder why I take certain photos… Sometimes it is just a reaction, you see something, somewhere the brain says, hey snap a picture NOW, and before you can even think about it, there is a new photo captured in your camera. It is usually these types of photos that I love best. The moments where you don’t even have a second to think about it, you just make the picture…

Photo of the week | April 21 2009
I am posting this weeks photo of the week a little early. I have noticed that I am very busy on the weekend making photographs, working, and find myself not in front of a computer, so I miss posting… So I am going to try and post the photo of the week a little earlier in the week… when I am in front of a computer… Anyways, this weeks photo comes from Mexico as well. Playa del Carmen. This was on one of my walks in the residential area of Playa. I happened upon this scene of a woman sweeping the street, and a dog walking away in the middle of the street. The sun was low and warm, and I quickly snapped a few images…

Photo of the week | April 11 2009
I missed last weeks Photo of the Week due to the fact that I was in Mexico on vacation celebrating my one year anniversary with my wife Catherine. We had a wonderful time. I did not however have a computer there, so I couldn’t do anything with the photos I was taking while there, including posting one here. Now that I am back I am slowly getting myself back into the fast pace of life.
This weeks Photo of the Week comes from Mexico. I am not very good at Tourist type photographs of people standing in front of what they did or saw, etc. I spent most of our time in Playa outside the Tourist area, photographing what I would consider possibly more of the real Mexico. This weeks photo is from one of those adventures, check it out.
