Operations.

Been a while since I posted here. Have been relaxing and getting away from normal spots I routinely shoot at. It’s been good. Also recently picked up my guitar playing again. Rusty isn’t the fucking word. lol. But with that also comes building them which I am good at. Gifting one to a friends daughter. Pretty cool big block parts caster with a Jazz-master neck on it. I’ll pop a photo in ig stories when finished.

The image above was the purchase of a new lens that kinda shoots old school tv letter boxed. It’s made more for video and the outer edges get a little distorted but it has made for some cool shots. I especially like the portraits cause it gets in close but shows a huge wide view of the back surroundings. Once again inspired by the master even though this is a whole different game.

It’s been working pretty cool and I plan on using it at a multitude of distances to achieve different looks. So far I’m loving the results. Slightly grainy in night photos but fuck it these are right out of cam I’ll take my own film look without editing. Keep your eyes peeled I’m just getting started with this.

And yes I am still fucking with my Ai shit it’s fun and occupies a different time line when I need to step away from the camera but it is def sharpening my edit skills and even composition. By seeing certain things and trying to recreate them I am pointing the camera in a bunch of new ways now.

Ever since I was a wee tad shit I have loved and followed Dave Manns artwork and if I can create a few good ones of my own even if digitally generated from my own photography. So be it it’s for me. If some like it and enjoy great if not. Oh well. I’m not out to make money on it. Nor would I ever cop a man print and try to make a penny from doing a peice with some aspects.

Again it’s just for fun to see how far I can go. Some I have replaced bikes in them with some I shoot or friends for a good laugh and fun.

Also in the last week we Lindt a great actor. Mr. Michael Madsen. He was in a shit ton of movies I loved growing up. And was iconic as Mr. Blonde. Some think I was hacked for posting the shot of him talking to the chopped off ear and saying can ya hear me. Lolol. Fuck it loved that scene. Also as the Gent in Hellride.

You can see where I’m inspired and messing with the new gear I have been shooting with here. Wanna create images that go beyond a cinematic edit and have the whole vibe.

Anyways I gotta scoot got a bbq today. Just wanted to drop this and say hello and hope everyone had a great 4th. Tomo I’ll be out and about and then Monday rain I’ll be editing and doing stuff for print orders and some I said I’d would email. Dan and Hollywood are on top of list before all.

Thank you and God bless.
