ABANDONED PLACES THAT LOOK AMAZING

Posted by on Sep 23, 2013 in BLOG | 4 comments Here are a few very cool looking places that are a mix of isolated, abandoned and sometimes scary. This first one is on my list of a place I’d love to see. The sunken boat in Antarctica creeps me out the most. I don’t know why… maybe cold water scares me?

OLD BIKE BECOMES NEW

Posted by on Sep 21, 2013 in BLOG | 0 comments Ok it is not that old at all, but the parts on this Trek bike were the horrible Sram ones and made me crazy. Huge thanks to my friend Alex (Sasha) who did the big swap for me. I rode this today and it felt like a new bike. Yahoo. This DURACE stuff is really nice. So glad to have it on there today. I am almost convinced the parts made me faster too.

THE COOLEST PLACE IN TOWN. WHAT A CHILLING VISIT

Posted by on Oct 5, 2012 in BLOG | 1 comment I had a very cool experience on Wednesday in starting to shoot some extensive progress reports of a massive construction job. I need to get various high up vantage points and one ended up being on the ROOF of a FIVE STORY FREEZER UNIT!!! Wow. I guess it makes sense but I never thought they would chill the WHOLE building. Even the elevators have icicles in them. So VERY COOL – LITERALLY 😉...

Please forgive me if I don’t wave back 😉 I always shoot with the doors off, but this is one time where...

I have to make three of them too! Lots of work. Lovely matting and plaques etc. Should look very nice I think. Non Glare Plexiglass even since one frame goes to Germany, and one goes Montreal. *Shipping real glass that large is not a good plan, so plexiglass it is,...
