One man's land - road trip to Colorado

It's been a while so I thought I'd blog up... starting with my recent roadtrip to Colorado. Click HERE for the full size slide show.

Recent Clive photos

Catching up on some recent photos with Clive from the past couple of months.

Halloween at the pumpkin patch, Gault School, Lorraine and Lynn's, and Judy's:


I love it!

Tampa Am

Just back from Tampa where I really didn't shoot very much, except on Friday back in the bowl and the high ollie contest. It was one of my first times using a DSLR.

Luis Tolentino is really amazing.


Here's a slideshow of images.

Boardroom

Here's a slideshow of images, most from the night before the Boardroom skate contest that I helped organize in September.

August & September photos!

Catching up on a bunch of photosets that were posted in August and September on Flickr, enjoy.

Steamboat Daddies Night Out

The second installment of photos from our trip; Daddies night out.

Steamboat Polaroids

An amazing trip with amazing friends. Here's the first installment of photos from Steamboat; a set of Polaroids taken with my Sun 660 and Polaroid 779 film.

Holga @ Woodies on the Wharf

Jen, Clive and I went to Woodies on the Wharf a few weeks ago so I brought my Holga. Haven't been shooting enough with it really. It was a great day as you can see. The show is not that large but there are some great cars. Perfect outing for the little guy in between eating and sleeping. I think I have a few more pics on another roll from this day still to be developed.

Indy's 1941 Ford Pickup

Maybe I'll write a full story about what Lance and I have been through with this truck sometime. It should be told. Long story short, it went on the 30th Tour, made it about halfway though when it started having various issues with the air bags and leaking oil and tranny fluid. Eventually it went down for the count in Quakerville, OH (yes, that's a real town). That's when the nightmare of getting it back to California started. When it showed up in Ramona at Doomey's the guy opened the trailer up to find it smashed, all four corners, front, back and sides. He hadn't tied it down properly. Insurance battles and many thousands of dollars later, its back and better than ever and slated to be auctioned off to the highest bidder. Lee hooked me with some super 8 that Navarrette shot so I edited this little short. Anyone want to buy a piece of skateboard history?

Farrah Fawcett

Marty made this. He says I'm messed up for coming up with the idea.

Montrose, Colorado

I shot these two photos by my parents house in Montrose, Colorado. It was a sunny, cold winter day. The images were taken looking south toward Red Mountain Pass.

I decided to merge them to get a better take of the setting. I think it turned out pretty cool.

Seabright Cannery

We spend a lot of our lives working and since I also spend a lot of time with a camera in my hand I end up with a lot of photos around work.

My place of work is at an old fruit cannery in Santa Cruz which is now owned by Richard Novak and houses NHS and other businesses like a climbing gym, 2 bakeries, and 2 bike companies. Richard purchased the property in 1989 after the cannery stopped operations. Here's an old photo from 1947>


I'm getting ready to show some images in Jai Tanju's Emulsion Stew show on August 15th and was going through photos to print. So I thought I would compile a set of Cannery images that I've taken with various cameras over the years. There are other photos in and around the cannery from events and such but these are the random ones, taken at the spur of the moment of people, machinery, and the cannery itself. Enjoy if you care to...

Holga Fisheye set

Jen got me a Holga Fisheye a while back and I took a roll of Portra 160 and did a set in the art department of everyone working at their desk to experiment. I cropped them into circles and they have a really cool effect.

Making your kid happy when he is sick is top priority. Last week when Clive had yellow snot coming out of his nose and a fever, this pile of clean whites came in handy for 5 minutes or so of happiness.
