Tuckerman's Ravine - It's worth the climb - Part II

While I have been busy showing off the images from Tuckerman's I had one 'peach of an image' that I wanted to share. And for those of you who will be seeing my portfolio in the near future, this image did not make the cut, even though, I desperately wanted it to.

Remember, the climbers have been drinking all day.

Tuckerman's Ravine - It's worth the climb

Fresh in from a Tuckerman's Ravine hike and shoot.

I always wondered why I never see good photographs of Tuckerman's. It is sooo steep, you would have to be crazy to take out your camera, let alone drag one up the face. As you can guess, I did it anyway.

Below is the postcard for the up and coming edit. Back to you tomorrow for the entire show.

Table Top Update.

For those of you who have been following my commercial career, you know about my new table top aspirations. In the case of the latest couple of entries, it looks like the cheese chapter of the portfolio is coming together nicely.

To tell the truth, after I took this picture, I became a sculptor knowing that underneath every block of moldy cheese, a great representation of the human condition is revealed.

In this case, a grilled cheese sandwich.

Cheesy Does It.

In my quest to eat as much cheese as possible, I took a job making pictures of cheese on white for Columbia Cheese. I must share these pictures and a quick note.

Note: My studio still smells like feet.

Rob Morgan is in the house!

Hey Folks,

Get 'em while they are hot. I was thrilled to get a phone call from trendsetter, Rob Morgan's,personel. They wanted me to shoot the new styles of the best tee shirt yet.

Here are some pictures from the shoot and a link to the site HERE.

Nice work Rob. Lovin' it.

Who's Foot Is That?

After an overwhelming response to this picture of Magalie eating her foot, I wanted to post it for all to see.

My favorite response is from Seri, "Whose foot is that?"

It's amazing how small my car looks from 57ft up.

I was on location last week where a cherry picker was needed to get the right shot. After negotiating with parties, I was able to have one on set a 7am. Just in time for the wind to pick up.

When I was taking this photograph, I was confronted with excitement and dread all at once. The bitter cold and early morning wind reminded me of the natural forces that dominate the planet and the thought of this 57ft cherry picker being me only salvation was conflicting. I knew in my mind that I would eventually be on the ground again but my heart knew that this object was no match for the natural forces around me.

As you can see, fact prevailed and fiction was left for the weary.
