Yakima – Really? Really!
A few weeks ago I was in Yakima, Washington with friend and fellow photographer Daniel Galan. Right at sunset I lead the charge to ditch the wives and kids to shoot a few images before settling down to a margarita and a little of the local Mexican cuisine. After being cooped up in a hotel [...]
Exposures – Guy Tal
“Exposures is collection of essays and images, originally published in various online sites, blogs, and newsletters as well as some mainstream publications. As the sands of the Internet shift and pile and overtake, I decided to preserve some of these writings in print in the hope that they continue to be interesting and useful. Although [...]
Tomorrow – adam 12
In a little over 12 hours I will commence on my adam 12 project. I hope some of you will do the same and send me the results. Watch my facebook, twitter, and flickr accounts for up to the minute postings of our travels.
Wolf Wars – National Geographic Article
National Geographic has a really good article online, that will also be included in their March 2010 print issue, regarding the wolf population in the west. It’s written by By Douglas Chadwick and photographed by a host of photographers. If you have ever traveled to Yellowstone and witnessed the spectacle surrounding these amazing creatures this article [...]
100th Post! and What is adam | 12? Updated
In a dark corner of a seedy bar, much like the one in the original Star Wars movie where viewers first met Han Solo, I sat with some very close friends sipping on some really good tequila. The events that were about to transpire would change the course of my photo and writing career for [...]
Niner for Zero Niner before Zero Niner of Zero Ten
Here are 9 images of mine from 2009, posted right before the ninth day of 2010. They may not be award winners, but they all contain a congruent theme – a little bit of my year. This year has been full of transition for me. My overall mission was really simple – to become a [...]
A New Year’s Post – Resisting is Futile
I have taken close to a hundred black and white images in 20 years of photographing. Yep, 100. That is it. I don’t even think it’s a recognizable percent of my total images to date. My old excuse was that I didn’t want to house another film in a fridge that was already packed with [...]
Yellowstone Image Makes Honors
Jay has just received a Bronze award in the 2009 International Aperture Awards Competition for this image that highlights the foliage re-growth in Yellowstone National Park since the 1988 wildfires. Jay took the photo from above the Lewis River, near the south entrance of the park, this past summer as a thunderstorm was clearing at [...]
Happy Holidays
My wife told me to take her credit card to the store and get a bunch of lights to decorate the house. I decided to spare no expense, since it wasn’t my dime. I think there is a dog house in there somewhere that will be my home until it is time to clean it [...]
Live Interview
John Greengo of Art Wolfe Inc. Is going to interview me live today at 11am pacific. To see it, head to creatvetechs.com/live. We will be posting the video in the next couple of days here as well.
The Commercial Side
Many people want to know what I am doing at any given moment in time so I am trying to make that happen by adding more blog posts while I am working. Last night I was photographing a private residence for a commercial client in Colorado. I am not allowed to give names…well, I could [...]
Yellowstone and Grand Teton
Tomorrow we are off to Yellowstone. If I manage to find some WI-FI to steal, I will post some progress reports. If not you will just have to wait until next week!
New Workshop/Tour
The dates are final, the price is final and so are the details. Jay will be leading a workshop tour in Chile, South American on September 4-11, 2009. The Altiplano, a high plain that stretches from Northern Argentina to Peru, is our stop this fall for an amazing international workshop/tour. We will be staying on [...]
February 2009 Photo of the Month
Heather and I have been together for almost 12 years. We have always struggled to find a New Year’s celebration that has kept us talking about the experience for the months following. The parties that we remember often are the ones in which we were always with those closest to our hearts. I think 2000 [...]
