  1. Waiting

    2017-11-22 06:10:23 UTC

    “Waiting” My train rides with Elliot always lead to Union Station.  The Expo line stops at 7th Street and we transfer to the red line and ride the rest of the way to Union Station.  Sometimes we’ll get out and walk down 7th and then turn left, up towards Grand…


  2. At the end of the day

    2017-11-20 05:11:30 UTC

    “At the end of the day 1” ‘At the end of the day 2” “At the end of the day 3” Nothing today will be related to photography really.  You’ve been warned.   I haven’t processed any film this month so far.  In fact I haven’t shot very much this month…


  3. Hello, Hej

    2017-11-17 06:17:32 UTC

    “Hello, hej” “Mirror mirror… mirror…” “Twin size bed” If you’ve spent most of your adult life in Sweden and then moved abroad, it’s a moral imperative to locate your closest Ikea the second you come up for air.  It’s a law actually… in the Swedish constitution.  Given that subconscious mandate…


  4. Shadows and legs

    2017-11-14 05:20:41 UTC

    “Shadows and legs” I made this image on a Sunday a while back.  AM and I had just picked up the girls in Century City and were headed to the Farmer’s Market in Beverly Hills for some fresh produce and then to the library so Ester could take-out a few…


  5. Metroreflex and other nearest misses

    2017-11-13 05:22:57 UTC

    “The Driver” “Metroreflex” “Meanwhile on the red line” “Doritos” “Sunbeam” “LVR” “See something say something” “Nap time” Here’s another batch of images that were all about to hit the edit room floor.  They span the course of the last few years with the earliest being in September of 2015 and…


  6. An Ending

    2017-11-11 07:04:31 UTC

    “An End” The image says a lot but not the whole story.  Since the early days of scientific exploration, coinciding with European imperialism, we white people have done whatever we deemed nessecary at the time to further our empires and our fortunes.  We have always perpetrated these crimes of progress…


  7. 50

    2017-11-08 05:21:10 UTC

    “Home” I shot at 50mm for two years.  It was the only M mount lens I owned so it was the only lens that mattered.  During those two years I learned to shuffle my feet, to duck and tippy-toe and bow and every other strange contortion you can make to…


  8. Eloper

    2017-11-07 06:07:40 UTC

    “Eloper” elope [ih-lohp] verb (used without object), eloped, eloping. 1.to run off secretly to be married, usually without the consent or knowledge of one’s parents.  2.to run away with a lover.  3.to leave without permission or notification; escape: At age 21, the apprentice eloped from his master. 4.(of a person…


  9. (This is) Magnolia and her jacket

    2017-11-05 04:46:48 UTC

    “(This is) Magnolia and her jacket” The kids and I were walking back from the Hammer when I saw this lovely young lady sitting on a stoop waiting for a Taxi.  She was looking at something on her phone and smiling with this big beautiful smile.  Then I noticed her…


  10. At the end of the day

    2017-11-03 04:11:06 UTC

    “Trifecta” “Smoke shop” “Ladder” “Curious boys” “Bike your walk” I love the sunsets here in Santa Monica and I don’t get out as often as I wish to shoot in that glorious light.  During the summer it’s a bit easier since sunset comes just late enough that I can make…


  11. Twinning

    2017-10-31 04:54:52 UTC

    “Twinning” Here’s another attempt at seeing what’s happening around me instead of looking for the image I’m expecting to make.  I walked into the LACMA book store right after the guy in the picture.  Anna Maria and the kids were already wondering around inside looking at books and posters and…


  12. Current Mood 171025

    2017-10-26 04:25:37 UTC

    “Current mood 171025” I appreciate that it takes time to get film processed.  I need that time, I’ve realized.  In fact I think I actually need more time than just a week or two to feel comfortable.  Don’t get me wrong, it would be nice to be able to see…


  13. Current Mood 171025

    2017-10-26 04:25:37 UTC

    “Current mood 171025” I appreciate that it takes time to get film processed.  I need that time, I’ve realized.  In fact I think I actually need more time than just a week or two to feel comfortable.  Don’t get me wrong, it would be nice to be able to see…


  14. Head shrinking

    2017-10-24 01:34:32 UTC

    “Head shrinking” I’ve been trying to see things differently.  I’m trying to really look at what’s happening around me and to not see what I’m expecting to see.  I feel like I’m missing things, important things that are worthy of finding and exploring are happening and it’s not for want…


  15. Grumpy old men

    2017-10-23 04:13:56 UTC

    “Grumpy old men” I followed the gentleman in the photograph for a while.  I liked his suit and bald head and didn’t quite understand the bag, but then again I didn’t really need to.  I found him interesting and I thought he will make an interesting subject in what I…


  16. This is my girl

    2017-10-21 06:25:46 UTC

    “This is my girl” No need for a long diatribe tonight.  This is my girl, Anna Maria.  I made this picture a couple weeks ago when we went to the beach right around sunset.  She was running around like she’s want to do, taking pictures of all things beach.  For…


  17. One by one

    2017-10-20 05:01:48 UTC

    “One by one” The story behind this image is more anecdotal than anything but at the same time a testament to how sheep-like we humans can be at times–or at least how sheep like I can be at times.   I had just walked out of the LA/LA exhibit at LACMA…


  18. Crash

    2017-10-19 05:24:37 UTC

    “Crash” I made this image one Sunday at the Beverly Hills Farmer’s Market.  We had stopped at the library to get a couple books for Ester and then walked over, thinking to score some seasonal produce–in particular peaches and nectarines which are just crazy good this time of year.  The…


  19. At the end of the day

    2017-10-17 07:34:24 UTC

    “At the end of the day” I had a brief exchange with someone today about writing and photography.  Alex is not only a talented film photographer, but an equally talented writer.  His point: the stories behind the images we make give the pictures far greater weight than any story that…


  20. What the fuck?!?

    2017-10-16 05:57:12 UTC

    “What the fuck?!?” I was walking the Huntington Beach Pier with AM and the kids when I made this image.  The surfer in the picture was doing a run when all of a sudden it was almost like he was yanked back by some invisible force.  He started screaming at…


  21. The boy in the bubble and other nearest misses

    2017-10-15 05:42:00 UTC

    “The boy in the bubble” “Man behind the camera” “Rockabillies and Cokes” “Focus” “End of the rail” “From above” After yesterdays seriousness, I wanted to go the opposite way today.  When I first started shooting those first 10,000 pictures that were supposed to be my worst and which preceded the…


  22. Estranged

    2017-10-14 04:59:12 UTC

    “Estranged” I don’t know how long they had been drifting apart.  It could have started last week or last year or last time they really talked.  But it had happened at some point and all that really matters is that it would have happened no matter what they did.  I…


  23. Arrivals

    2017-10-11 04:35:43 UTC

    “Arrivals” I’ve been out in Palmdale and Lancaster shooting for work and I haven’t had a chance to post for a couple days.  I’ve missed it actually.  There’s something therapeutic about trying to write a few words every day about the real work you make in your life–the passions you…


  24. Sleepers | Powernap

    2017-10-06 04:39:07 UTC

    While we were in Vegas in July for a short two-day vacation, we stayed at the Bellagio.  I booked everything through Am-Ex travel so the I could get the standard set of upgrades through my particular card.  We drove there from LA with the puppies who we were boarding near…
