Tantric turtles. St. James, Missouri
For some reason, critters like to do it in front of me. I’ve captured enough similar images to suggest a series. Let’s call it ‘Birds and the Bees’ for now. These two never missed a beat during our shoot. If you look closely into the male’s eye, you can see the unmistakable suggestion of “Do not screw this up for me buddy.” I can respect that.

9’ Sausage. Boston
I was lucky enough to be invited into the inner sanctum of this Boston butcher shop. A little old lady, clearly a regular customer said the guys inside wouldn’t mind if I took a few shots. Got this tasty one before wearing out my welcome.

1000 voices. NYC
View from the Manhattan Bridge. I love that people are nowhere to be found in this place of excessive personal expression. Let’s hope it takes ‘the man’ a good long while to clean up all this beauty.

Mexican pool hall, 7am, Zihuatanejo
No signs of all the tough talk and Pesos lost the night before. Shot through the bars.

Widow. Denver Colorado 
Probably the most sinister looking creature on the planet. Found this lovely specimen in my garage. Friend and fellow photographer Andrew Webb and I played with her later that evening. She never seemed to tire of fun photo scenarios we created for her. I’m sure she was just biding her time. Set her free in the alley many houses from my own. These spiders can live for several years. She may still be coming for me.

Licorice. Denver Colorado

The first image produced from the eyecandy series—my most ambitious project to date. 12 images (so far): 10 models, 9 kinds of adhesive, and more candy than a grown man should ever have in his possession. Would never have been possible without the generosity and support of many.

Moonwalkers. Vancouver British Columbia
Workers on the puffy roof of BC Place (where the 4th Olympic Torch had stage fright) were kind enough to pose for this shot. 

Busty. Marrakesh Morocco

This red torso hanging on the wall of a tailor’s shop may be perceived as a bit risqué in a conservative Muslim neighborhood. I find it kind of hot in a grandma’s closet kind of way.
