Connect and Disconnect

Interesting portraits can be made with just with eye contact or the lack of it - subtle or intense, there is so much emotional content to play around with - look at me, look through me or wander the worlds within.

Abandoned Spaces

Just as every being has a life cycle so does a building - birth/construction, life/utilization, death/demolition. There are times the structure can no longer server its what it was meant to do, it enters a state of limbo where uncertainity lays in its future. Abandonment is the first of the stages, decay embraces it, untimely death waits for it in its clouded future. For many you almost know with certainty what is to happen to it, but only the tide of time reveal what is to come.

Port of Oakland

A day spent a going around the Port of Oakland.




Loading cranes at the Port of Oakland in the morning. Taken from across the bay on the piers south of the Bay Bridge in San Francisco. The fog and dust was taking its sweet time to clear up.

In search of color

Walking down the streets of San Francisco in the Marina and Richmond neighborhoods in search of color. So much of my past work relied on black and white that I now feel it wouldn't be so bad to shoot just for the sake of color.
