Pano Pandemonium
Lots and lots of panoramas in the last few weeks. Here are a few examples of the more successful ones. Above is a ruined building at Rholyte, Nev. I believe this is 4 or 5 images. Be sure to click the images to see them a little larger. (most of these are between 70-150″ long in full size, and had to be massively downscaled for web.)

At the conclusion of yet another adventure with thevisualCollective, and as has become our tradition, I present you with the ‘Daily Affirmations::Death Valley 1.1′ If you are wondering why the above image has a pixelated look, it is because it is presented in glorious 3-D. Click the image to open it in a new window and experience portraiture in all three dimensions.

tvC: The Movie
For those of you who don’t know, thevisualCollective is a project a few friends and I started about a year ago. Basically ‘Creative Outfitting’ we take groups of creative types to location to be inspired and make art in whatever form that might be. We have been gathering a head of steam in Flagstaff and around Northern Arizona, featured in several galleries, arts & entertainment newspapers and in our collaboration with local business.
In October three participants on our tvC 4.0 Havasupai outing produced a short documentary project about our little group. After months of anxious waiting, it debuted at the Flagstaff Student Film Festival, and we couldn’t be happier with the outcome. Please take the 6 or 7 minutes to watch it, and be sure to check out all the happenings over at thevisualCollective’s web site for free contests, photography, videos and lots of DIY projects…
Thanks again to Talia, Lauren and Nicole for all the hard work, hope to see you again on another tvC outing in the future…

Slide Film and Other Distractions
As the title implies and as I have alluded to in the previous post on this blog, I have found a new love for slide film…
I have been distracted in other ways too (new glass for my Nikon), but 120mm Fujichrome is just so cool.

Havasupai::tvC 4.0
And so I’m back from outer-space and blogging again. Although it has been a while since my last posting, don’t be fooled, I have been busy working on a number of projects; the blog just wasn’t one of them…
Now on to new business. A few weeks ago thevisualCollective and I traveled to the remote and incredibly beautiful Havasupai reservation deep within the Grand Canyon. About a 10-12 mile hike in with all your gear for three days, I decided to go light. I only brought one camera with one lens and a small tripod. The Canon AE-1 with a 28mm fixed lens was the weapon of choice. I shot one roll of Kodak TX-400 (my go to film stock), one roll of Illford SFX 200 (kind of a faux infrared) and several rolls of Fujichrome slide film (one of my new favorites)
What follows are some of my personal favorites from the trip, there are many more but these are my personal pick…

Ragnar Napa Favorites
I have been falling a little behind in my blogging lately (or at least jumping out of order a little bit). For those of you who are regular readers, you know I just returned from shooting yet another Ragnar Relay; this time in Northern California’s wine country. Hit the link for a few of my favorite’s from the weekend…

What I have been doing with my summer vacation…
Actually the title of this post is somewhat misleading. If you keep up with this blog you already know some of what I have been up to this summer; however, I have finally gotten past my negative digitizing roadblock and have a backlog of images for your viewing pleasure…
