Further Farther

For the last few years, I have traveled by bicycle with a 35mm camera and shot photos along the way. I am scanning and posting one image a day. I have queued up a month worth of photos because next week I leave for a 30 day, 1400ish mile trip through the Sierra Cascades and Big Sur.

the square foot

A new photoblog documenting Portland one square foot at a time. Flora, fauna, graffiti, food, art, &c. A few new pictures each day. I have trouble remembering to look around sometimes; this project is in part an attempt to be better about paying attention to the little details around me, in my neighborhood and around town, a way for me to really get my hands on the town and to remember to keep my eyes open and not just get wrapped up in getting from Point A to Point B. I also really enjoy recalibrating my sense of scale, and the literal square foot frame puts a sense of metric context to things that might otherwise just seem to be biggish or smallish at a distance. There's something really interesting to me about the way things can suddenly become so much bigger when you get closer to them than you have before, or the way things that can seem bigger than they are because they're in your face.

36 lessons in photography

I've put up a Flickr set with 36 photos that I've selected, and written a small paragraph or two under each photo explaining what's going on, or a lesson I learned, or just how that photo happened. I hope to expand it as time goes on, and I invite critique and questions.

Random photos on the highway

I've been wanting to do a photo essay of drivers that sit too close to the steering wheel for over a decade. When I finally got around to rigging something up, the moments of serendipity were way too fun to limit the project to such a narrow theme. I give you Passenger Window. I have already ordered a polarizing filter to limit the glare caused by windows. Any other feedback? Thanks for checking it out!

Princely Feast

Morels, daggered lettuce, fiddlehead ferns, rabbits, and tender, tender lamb. Part morality tale, this photoessay on foraging and seasonal food was shot over three days as part of the ongoing project 'The Voracity,' exploring hunger, consumption, and beauty. Previously. From concept to art direction to execution and post production there is a lot to talk about, but instead I'll just link the artists that made this vision come to life: photos: Anna Williams set design: Pamela Duncan Silver food styling: Susan Sugarman design/layouts: Darhil Crooks
