Random Posting

Random posting, one example of portrait section of my website that will be done in the next 10 years. Other two photographs are from a huge batch of crime scene photographs from Mexico that I got last year.

Back to OHIO!

Back to Ohio. But I have plenty of memories and photos to remember this trip by. Some random photographs from the trip. Thanks again Mom and Dad for the incredible time!!!!! BTW: My parents don't wear speedos, the first photo is random beach goers.

TREASURE FOUND!!!!!!!!!!!

Incredible day again! Blue Skies, really hot, and no mist/fog until around 5 ish. Me and my parents went on a walk today down the beach and ran into a really fascinating character. He was in the water hunting with his metal detector for treasure. He had already found two wedding bands that day. I asked if he ever found any old shipwreck gold and he answered "No". Then we went to dinner by the water and saw a shipwreck that I photographed at Snooks. Dinner was good and finally after a whole day of phone tag with Benny he reached me during dinner to wish me a Happy Birthday and he had a quick couple photoshop questions he needed answered. One more half day at the beach then back to cold Ohio. You can also see where I get my grey hair from.

Happy Valentines Day!!!!!!!

Happy Valentines Day!! Once again today started out perfect sun and blue skies. Then around 1 the weird fog/mist came in again. I took a couple of photos of birds again, a self portrait to match the Turks and Caicos photo, some parasailing framed weird, and a photo of my B-day gift to myself. I found the the Buzz Rickson/Nom de Guerre N-3 jacket from 2007, the first of the snorkel parkas ( I got it for $969 off, keeping my mouth shut about how much I got it for). We went out for my birthday dinner and I got tons of food: sushi, Alaskan King crab legs, mash potatoes, and salad. Thanks Erin for the photo!

Foggy Beach and Birds

Another great day at the beach. Started out super foggy, then got really sunny and blue and then 10 mintues later the fog rolled back in. It was pretty creepy. I got in the water which was warmer but really weird since you couldn't see the ocean, my dad took a photo me. We stayed in tonight ordered pizza and played sequence. My brother and Erin kicked ass. I won my B-day gift on Ebay at midnight for myself, so today has started out perfect! Now I just need the sun and blue skies back.

Honestly Dolphins

Honestly, so far this vacation has been great. Lots of great seafood and cool restaurants (not the usual places like Wendy's, China Express, ect). I had some amazing Ruffy a couple nights ago that I would've never had in Ohio. Today my parents took us to Cape Coral to swim with the Dolphins. I was one of the only ones not wearing a wetsuit which for some odd reason upset a lot of people. I am glad I didn't because the water felt perfect and I didnt't feel restricted at all. My mom loves Dolphins and it was great to see her super happy. Then we went to a Tiki Bar for a sec and this lady had a cool pet Iguana. Thanks to my Dad and Mom for pushing me to go take some photos, I like the first one posted and the akwardness. Then it was off to South Beach where we ate at Ocean's 10. South Beach was cool but way too many crappy Affliction shirts, (the new Von Dutch/Ed Hardy craze), DB's and tramp stamps. Lots of fun to people watch there though.

Blue Beach

More Beach shots. Great Dinner with Karaoke tonight. Only 6 Days left and of course Saturday is my B-Day. So overnight gifts to the island for me. PS: I need a new watch.

MARCO POLO SUNSET

Alone, Mom, Dad, and Bro and the sunset today. O' and the Mister Freedom MFSC 7161md utility pants.

More Marco

Some more Marco photo's, getting warmer finally, low 80's in the days to come.

Marco Island Vacation

Just got to Marco today and took couple photos on the way to the condo. Good vacation so far and I needed one! Just going to relax on the beach and listen to Howard Stern. I also included one of my stereo Kodachrome car crash slides that I scanned. This is one of the tame ones but really cool one. You should see it in stereo.

Talle Bamazi Portraits

Me and Rainer had a photoshoot with Emerging Marketing today. Owner Chris McGovern is also Chairmen of the Board for the first Contemporary African Art Gallery, Kiaca, founded by Artist Talle Bamazi. Talle Bamazi stopped by and I was able to take some portraits of him. He is an amazing artist, google his name to see more of his art.
