more barge stuff

barge in charge




so we had a massive storm to come through here and a barge got knocked free and came ashore.

it was so bizarre seeing this. reminded me of a lake wobegon special where everyone came from town to check out the barge.

clarity



i met this man on assignment. he's former homeless who now owns his own recording studio. we had a very intense time together speaking of life and god, and i wanted desperately to make an image that was reflective of his passion for music. i had brought lights to make the image, but later put them down, and just asked him to go to the space where he felt safe.

this image is from that time.

what an amazing moment, such intensity - a reminder, a clarity, of the power of the pageantry of the forgotten and overlooked

a few more from the house



pilot blogging






so i got the green light from my boss to blog work from the virginian-pilot.

here's some from a halloween haunted house. technical note on shooting - i shot the flash at a tighter zoom than the lens used to help get a vignette look on the top one.
