I met a photographer last night while shooting a house show for 16 Blocks’ upcoming issue. His name was Geoff (didn’t give his last) and he was traveling with Emotron and Mose Giganticus. Geoff intrigued me because of the Leica M8 and Sunpak Panel Flashes he had, not a setup you see everyday (especially in Blacksburg). He also shot from the hip, not once looking through the view finder, flash in one hand, camera in the other.

I talked to him pretty briefly and he told me to check out his stuff here. Pretty cool, I’ve always really liked the feel of the Leica Rangefinder images.

A few more from my Grandpa’s Birthday.

I recently scanned a whole bunch of film (basically everything I had shot since August) and will be posting some of them at intervals as I get a chance to make them look good.

Here’s a few from my Grandpa Trimble’s 80th Birthday celebration in Bolinas, CA in August.

For some reason it was in the mid 50s today (is it really February?) and we decided to get outside a bit as we had a touch of the cabin fever. We went to a lesser known trail area called Falls Ridge Nature Preserve. I don’t know why we had never been there before(let alone heard of it), it’s practically right outside our back door.

It’s not big, but what it lacks in size it makes up for in awesomeness. Off one loop is a pretty decent waterfall with lime deposits all over the place, which makes for some really cool rock formations. There’s also an abandoned lime kiln from the early 20th century, giving the feel of some sort of ancient ruins.

We didn’t have a chance to do the longer of the two trails, but we definitely plan on going back.

I’ll post some of my photos when I get them processed and scanned.

So on Wednesday Jeff and I decided to play around with some different light setups, this was one of the best of the bunch.

Whaddya think, should I move to NYC and start my modeling career?

is this lightbox plugin working correctly?
