Lets Boogie

Im in a good mood and I hope you are too. Since my last post i have gotten a bunch of great comments and it just shakes my tail that people from Israel, Scotland, a couple of cats in Austria, a guy from Romania, misc people from all over the States. Its cool to think that your work can be all over the world and you dont even know it.

People ask me all the time which film I use and the answer to that varies. The color stocks are all slides, Fuji Provia 100 and 400x and Kodak Ektachrome 100 when im feeling like butter. Black and white stocks are mostly Tri-X 400, NeoPan 400, and the bomb Ilford 50. I do not process my own film, dont really know how and dont really have the time. I know i probably should buuuttttt i have better things to do that sit in a red room inhaling fumes from chemicals that make asphalt rust. People who work at labs are loopy for a reason…i need all my marbles.

What you will be seeing today are frames from the last month, i have been all over the country lately which has been nice and rewarding

Shizzam!

I bring you New York City! Keep it clean folks

this guy…It was me rob mat and C-roLine walking out of an extremely long champagne cocktail extttrrraaavvvaaagggaaannnzzzaaaa and i look left and see the guy who looked like he just escaped from an Indian Casino holding bin. Being slightly (drunk) intoxicated i had a laugh, took out the camera and waited for him to pass, He immediately started yelling at me. “YOU FUCKING ASSSSHOLLE! YOU CANNOT TAKE A PICTURE OF ME, I AM PRIVATE PROPERTY!, THIS…ME I AM PRIVATE PROPERTY” At that point i had elected myself the mayor of this situation. I then glanced around at my constituencies (which had grown to everyone in the street and in the automobiles driving on it Like 40 heads). I had no choice or chance for trying to explain the truth to this man so I  started laughing as he rode away on his Pee Wee Herman bike. End of story, no great conclusion. I hope he knows all of his private property is aaaallll up in Romania and Austria now. Thanks for the frame ASSSHOLLE!

I don’t know why, but this is hilarious to me. Clearly someone was in an argument over this and I really wish I could have heard it. Israeli comrades and falafel authorities…what do you think Israeli or no?

You dont even know how much fun this day was, nor how great the hour or so it took me to “frame” this shot. We eventually ended up at Washington Square Park listening to the livest music.

I’ll leave you with caroline…she once thought that our mutual friend had robbed a bank. He was out of the country for a couple of months and didn’t really let anybody know about his departure but he definitely did NOT rob a bank. Anyway, I told her that he did and had to flee the country until the heat was off. She bought it and didn’t find out it wasn’t true for another 3 of 4 months. She is a homie…you tell her a secret and she’ll keep it even if it is ridiculous.

Unreleased…

Here are about 40 photographs that have yet to be seen, about a dozen of which I even forgot about.  I am sick of not sharing and am feeling a little bold. I have decided to just upload a bunch of things at the same time. No need for five here and 3 there and 11 around the corner, who am i trying to entice? I think  there are about 12 (maybe) people who look at this site and for those dozen of you…big ups. If you do read and look at this and I do not know you, please send me a message just so i know who checks the work; freek or geek… just hit me up. I would appreciate that. I hope you enjoy, take 6-7 minutes out of your internet perusing and just scroll down. im sure you will not be disappointed. If you are then thats all good, its not really about you anyway. ill start from the most recent…
