Still Standing

I have thought more about the idea we have discussed of teaching at the college in the sleepy little town. It's a great dream. For many years I had a client in Martinsburg, West Virginia. Just a few miles from Shepardstown, West VA, home of Shepards College. Talk about bucolic. There is a train station there...an hour to DC...the big…

A Big House with a View

Nice. Latest real estate assignment? Not sure where we left off. I had to give up the job. My back is so bad right now I can barely walk. Having surgery Oct. 9 if I get over the nasty cold I've just come down with. You probably figured out that was the reason for the new email address. They said…

I Ain’t Done Yet…

Well I should call it a day and head out for that terrible commute of mine, but I am still working on this lovely condo. 2 more bedrooms to do. And I have to go back for a garage shot and exterior of the building...maybe a lobby shot too. Can you say fun... So to amuse myself I work on…

Then You Remember Why it Came to an End

Just saying hello, Seems like forever since we chatted. Everything ok in you world? Lavelle asked me about processing some photos and said they were working with a different designer. That you had things to take care of. Is everything ok? I hope so. We last chatted around the time of your sister’s death and I hope the sadness…

O The Market

As we now enter that precious time of year in the Pacific NW called summer, those of us who live here say yes... this is why we live here. We endure the cloudy, wet days, because we know the gods of weather will give us a sweet, but short period of great beauty. A time where we can enjoy long…

Nicolette, So nice to meet with you yesterday and share my work with you. Had I known more about you, I might have prepared a different presentation. The fine art world has always been my passion, but it has been the worlds of commerce and academia that have supported that passion over the years. But it was a pleasant surprise…

What the Camera Saw

I would like to thank all those of you who liked and paid me nice compliments on the previous posting of my new cover image, taken in Washington, DC, last week. I am often asked if I Photoshopped an image or changed it in any way. In the interest of full disclosure, here is the original, right out of the…

Is He Dealing with a Full Deck of Cards?

I thought of you over the weekend too. I always wake up to the radio every morning, except Sunday to NPR. I particularly like Saturday morning, with Scott Simon. This past weekend, as I am sure you know, he interviewed Mike Mitchell about his Beatles work. It was a good interview, nice to hear Mike’s voice and what he had…

Make More Pictures

Tomorrow, February 1st marks the 30 anniversary of my arrival in Seattle. It has always been an important anniversary for me. Though thinking back that far is kind of scary and makes me wonder why I did it and for that matter how did I get here? I walked out to get the morning papers and paused in the mist…
