Chicken Pie Shop
There sits an old restaurant along Euclid Avenue near the border of Fullerton and Anaheim. It’s an ancient place that looks like it has been there forever, or at least since the fifties. The La Palma Chicken Pie Shop. Fifties Americana food…chicken pies with thick gravy, fresh baked pies and two owners who are so tied to [...]
Wrought Iron
One of my favorite parts about New Orleans is the weathered wrought iron you find all over the city. In front of buildings, along courtyards, in the cemeteries…beautiful, distressed, aging wrought iron. During our trip to the crescent city we spent a lot of time walking through various neighborhoods, I’d walk by a building, wrought iron [...]
A New Orleans Tale
I’ve been thinking a lot about New Orleans lately. In part because we recently visited the city, but also due to the premier of Treme on HBO last weekend. Treme focuses on the city of New Orleans post Katrina and is produced/directed by the same crew responsible for The Wire, one of the best shows [...]
100th Post
Wow, it’s hard to believe that this is my 100th post for the new blog/website. I’m not sure I had 100 posts total with the last blog setup, I’m on a roll!
The photo above is from Agra, on the road to the Taj Mahal, taken from our tour van. The skewed angle highlights the size [...]
French Quarter
I’ve put together a set of photographs, aptly enough called Doors, Windows, and Balconies that highlights some of the fascinating buildings and sights of the Crescent City.

Rebirth
Hope everyone is enjoying their Easter Sunday, I have the pleasure of shooting Annika and Aiden in their first ever Easter Egg hunt today, good times.
Continuing with the Doors, Windows, and Balconies theme from the other day, here are two additional photos from the set.
The first photo (2336) is from an abandoned [...]
Doors of New Orleans
One of the fascinating things about New Orleans is the amazing buildings and architecture throughout the city, especially in the French Quarter and Garden District. During our 5 days we walked up and down the streets of New Orleans, miles and miles, in part looking for interesting signs and doorways. They really are amazing, [...]
Howrah Bridge and Train Station
As I’ve recounted numerous times in the past, on my first trip to India I had significant issues dealing with the crowds, pollution, poverty, traffic, etc. So to me this photo is somewhat amazing. My brother-in-law (Sean) and I joined his cousin Sunny for an afternoon tour of Kolkata. After a long drive through the [...]
Desert Rowboat
If you flashback to yesterday I made it quite clear that I did not capture any interesting images in Bombay Beach…as I went through yesterday’s shoot I realized I wasn’t quite being honest. When we first rolled up on Bombay Beach, along the eastern shore of the Salton Sea, we were met with flooded streets, [...]
A Sunday Drive
We’ve been itching for a roadtrip, so when we discovered that we had a free day on Sunday we decided to take a jaunt to the desert for an afternoon drive – slash – photo tour. A few days ago I was talking to a friend about the Salton Sea and I realized it has [...]
Welcome Back!
Ok, I didn’t actually go anywhere. Between the Olympics, having a cold, and just general laziness…I haven’t been all that diligent about the updates. And I definitely haven’t been in the mode of working on a new set of photos, though I did find a number of shots from a trip to Yosemite in 2007 [...]
Kabootars
Another “deep dive” (ok, maybe today isn’t such a deep dive) in to one of the photos featured in “scenes of india“.
Prior to heading to a new location I like to do research, identify interesting locations, customs, buildings, etc. in search of photo opportunities. When reading up on the city of Agra, you have the [...]
Jama Masjid
A second deeper look in to one of the photos that make up “scenes of india“, a photographic journey through India.
Jama Masjid is one of the largest mosques in India and sits in the heart of Old Delhi. The courtyard, partially seen in the photo above, can hold up to 25,000 people. The Muslim community [...]
Fishing At the Feet Of God
Over the next few weeks I will be profiling some of the photos from my first publications, “scenes of india”.
The first photo profiled, Fishing At the Feet of God, is also the cover shot for the book. The photo features the Taj Mahal, as seen from Mehtab Bagh across the Yamuna River. The Taj Mahal [...]
scenes of india
I am pleased to announce the availability of “scenes of india”, a photographic journey through India. My first publicly available photography publication.
Scenes of India explores the life and times of urban Indian life in the cities of New Delhi, Gurgaon, Kolkata, and Agra. 70+ black and white photos printed on premium photo paper with a [...]
A Visit to Los Angeles
Wow, it definitely has been a dreary few days here in Southern California, anyone starting to go stir crazy yet? So it would appear that dream job #2 is not going to happen at this time. Disappointing, but at the same time it was always a long shot.
The photo above is from Mulholland Drive where [...]
Agra Fort
I’ve finished the editing and the first proof of the book, Scenes of India, is being printed and should be delivered in the next few days. The above photo, taken at Agra Fort in India is one of the included photos. After reviewing the book I’ll make it available for purchase and I’m sure it [...]
A Trip to Amboy
Today Sierra took her first roadtrip with us. For a 3 month old puppy she did remarkably well, even if she hasn’t quite figured out that it’s ok to go to the bathroom at rest stops. It would appear that we potty trained her too well!
After reading about Amboy, California in Richard Wong’s blog we [...]
Bananas
Today is an “odd” photography day. While in the midst of some of the best photography shoots I’ve had over the last couple of weeks, including making a jump back in to film and thoroughly enjoying that experience…I suddenly feel like I’m in a photography rut. Maybe it’s the process of editing 100 some odd [...]
Historic Fullerton
This gallery contains the first series of photos from my recently acquired Mamiya C220. Using Kodak Trimax 400 film Andree and I toured some historic downtown Fullerton locations on an overcast day. Overall I am quite impressed with how sharp the images are, even with having to rely solely on manual focus (something I’ve probably [...]
The Lazy Photographer
Silver Efex Pro converted black and white image. The abandoned Fox Theater in downtown Fullerton on the corner of Harbor and Chapman. Canon 5d
This weekend I took the “new” Mamiya C220 out for a spin. Shooting full manual with film was an interesting experience. No longer was I provided with instant feedback on the back [...]
India at 30km/h and random thoughts for a Thursday
One of the cool things about “starting the blog from scratch” is that I can re-use a lot of old photos without worrying about duplication! This photo is from a roadside store outside of Agra, in India and is included in my India at 30km/h photo essay. Shot from a window in a moving car, [...]
San Diego Skyline at Night
A classic scene from the city of San Diego as seen from Coronado Island along the boardwalk. 30 second exposure while hoping that the water taxis or a boat wouldn’t enter the frame.
We had an enjoyable day, deciding to visit San Diego and the grandbaby. After spending some time at the Chula Vista Nature Center [...]
