"Isn't it romantic?" I find myself saying that to myself almost exclusively. The sentiment I've perhaps schooled myself on the most is something that I keep close to me, if not exactly private. It's been more theoretical rather than practiced than I'd like to admit. It's another 'Valentine's' season but it's another year I sit … Continue reading What’s Easy For Two…

Art History
There’s so much photography honestly. There’s so much imagery in the world that it is almost impossible to comprehend how much it actually tells us about the world. I can’t help myself, like ever. I get lost in what other visuals tell me. I get so lost sometimes that I can’t take in all I’m … Continue reading Art History

You’ve Been On My Mind
Well, here we are in 2026. I find myself gathering my feelings and making them thoughts as the big change I've set myself up for for this first quarter of the year starts to unfold. These words and photos bridge the weirdness of my own way of how I look at the turn of solstice … Continue reading You’ve Been On My Mind
IS That All There IS…
I feel like I've already done everything: I've lived on my own. For the second time I own the car I've always wanted. I've traveled and seen some very breathtakingly, heartbreakingly beautiful parts of the world that are viable to see within the limits I find myself in society. I've eaten some delicious food. I've … Continue reading IS That All There IS…
Your Image Still Remains
Let the alchemy of all relationships work on you. That's my High John the Conquerer lesson as of late. I'm not gonna outsmart the powers that be alone. I don't know how to simplify the last few months. Photos recent and old tell a lot of stories I'm trying to sort through. These days the … Continue reading Your Image Still Remains
Dry Your Eyes – Angel Baby – Yes, I’m Ready
I actually had to work last Saturday. For whatever reason, I looked up at the BART station sign as I squinted in the September sunrise light. Flashing on the older red of the Fruitvale station screens said something about there being a lowrider show in The Mission starting at 1pm. It was the weekend after … Continue reading Dry Your Eyes – Angel Baby – Yes, I’m Ready
This Bitter Earth
We were ambling down some country road in and around Elverson in Joey's RAV4. The conversation burbled and bumbled in directions only two Geminis in their 40's could do. The bucolic stillness of Chester County, Pennsylvania distracting me as we whizzed by. While my mind drifted into the landscape as we drove to go get … Continue reading This Bitter Earth
The Fork In The Road
I’ll always praise this land, look forward to returning to it from time to time with the reverence of distance between us.
