just a couple photos… got a bunch more in the queue. It’s amazing how far behind you get when you start a month behind and then lose the use of your laptop for a week and a half. But enough excuses. I’m working on a bunch of things… couple photo shoots coming up hopefully, coding some interesting side projects. I have to wonder: is the extra mental energy spent on coding a drain on my photography? I think it is. If nothing else, there’s only so much time in a day. I don’t sleep much. Oh well. That’s what the coffee obsession is for.

It’s been a long week and a half actually. Broken laptop and hospital time and exhaustion and stress. But on the other hand: drinking and good times and great friends and new beautiful women. really, I’ll take what I can get. and now I’m back on the air, everybody’s healthy (knock on wood) and my lappy is more or less restored. Done and done.

Taking photos of skaters is weird. I was doing it today, again, and really, it’s a completely different thing from photographing other kinds of athletes or doing regular portraits. It requires you to be very close to the action- you’ve got to be careful not to make yourself an obstacle while being in the middle of things, basically. Anyway, yeah. I’ve been off the last month. not shooting as well as I usually do. I’ll get it sorted. I’m hoping it’s just the winter blues, which usually go away as things warm up.

Not about these photos, which are decent. I’m going to a rally today, in solidarity with the people in wisconsin. It’s another one of those moments in history. Revolutions across the world. Protests here in the US. People who are nostalgic for the late 60’s, wake up and get your ases down to the capitol. It’s a good time to be alive. And it is Oklahoma. Not a lot likely to happen here. (I know I just jinxed myself. The knowing negates it). But still, anything can happen. Anyway, enjoy the photos and pay attention to twitter for updates on the ground.

This shit was a blast. seriously a lot of fun. As in, we’re going to have to do it again. Thanks to (in no particular order): Amber (hair and makeup), Brian (lights/grip), KJ, and Meghan (models). Anyway, yeah. Photos. I’m splitting this into two posts to ease the server load. Next one in a hot minute.
