Because Sometimes it’s Nice to Get a Pat on the Back

Hi Mel, Thanks so much for your speedy reply, and for permission to use these awesome photos! I especially liked the one in the library with the "sun" glasses. :-) With regard to our school program, we have started a new nonprofit foundation (UnityWorks) and recently launched a pilot program in Yakima, starting with 4 schools - including Davis High.…

The Right to Say I Did This

Trey, Thank you for your kind words about my WH project. I have never been quite sure what people might think of these photos. Panoramic images can hard to look at, with the distortion and all. It has never bothered me, I embraced the look years ago. But I often wondered with this work, would one see it as a…

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…

Even Then I Knew…

Hey Brian... Is this you? I am just now catching up with my Christmas cards...so I thought I would write quick note. Have been very busy the past few months and last week someone threw the OFF switch and I am as quiet as a morgue here...not necessarily a bad thing, as long as it doesn’t last too long. So…

Where’s the Fun if You Don’t?

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…
