The double image was incidental, but it turned out. I was just loving the condition of this classic woody and the sky was perfectly overcast, so inspiration struck. Too bad it's only 5.0 megapixel resolution--better than nothing, though.

Tallulah...so intense!
This shot is from Summer 2008 after a good, long stay on Power Island in Northern Michigan. I think she looks pretty concerned that she would have to re-enter civil society after the free, wild time she'd spent on the island. She doesn't mind the boat, but I know at that moment she'd rather have been swimming for a tennis ball, for sure!

Dizzy & Charlie
Why? Just because. This clip is a cut called "Hot House" -- Enjoy!
Compared to a lot of older jazz clips from YouTube, this one has some fairly dynamic camera work going on and I liked that. Also, to see the faint outline of the orignal projector's lightbulb right in the center of the image is pretty classic.
The reel goes...chk, chk, chk, chk, chk, chk, chk...and on and on into slumber.

The Art of David Hale
The talented young artist who created this poster, David Hale, used to be my neighbor in Athens, Georgia. His main sources of inspiration, it seems, are based in nature and graffiti, but skate culture and tattoo design fall in at a close second and third. He told me years ago that birds are his favorite to paint and his catalogue of larger works reflects that ongoing interest. The hummingbird, enchanting and flitting, seems to always lead the migration onto his canvases. His series painted on skateboard decks are also excellent and can be seen in full at: DavidHale.org
Before we knew we were next door neighbors, I saw him painting a canvas live, on stage while his friends in the reggae fusion group Dubconscious skanked along in the summer sun during Athfest 2006.
