My computer died when i was posting so lets try this again.

Earlier this summer my family and I went on vacation to west Texas and New Mexico. The trip was great and extremely relaxing. It also provided me the opportunity to take pictures in a place with barren landscapes, extreme sun and huge sky. Architecture was meager to say the least. I am currently taking my first digital photography class and I would like to make it clear that none of these photos have been retouched. Some of them could use it though and I am aware. It just breaks my heart to use that darned photoshop but I am coming around. It is a tool of the trade. This series of photos was shot in and outside of Balmorhea and Marfa, Texas. The mountains(large hills) you see are the Davis mountains. Next will be New Mexico. I have been working a lot in the darkroom and producing new work. I will soon make this new work available to you online. For now you will have to deal with the colorful jubilation. Soon will come the dark and poetic.

A series from west Texas and New Mexico will follow.

I am finding myself overwhelmed. This week has been an amazing trial. Not only am I trying to manage adjusting to life in Brooklyn but classes started this week on my birthday August 31st. It has been a lot of work. I have managed to attend classes, move in to my studio and darkroom, acquire an assistantship, explore the city and spend time with old friends. I could not ask for more stimulation. As the past two weeks have passed I do feel myself slipping in to a routine and that is comforting. This is the beginning of a new life for me. So I want to tentatively make plans for this site. The plan is for me to upload more of my old digital images since it is fast and easy and just get them out of the way. As the next couple of weeks go by I will be producing new work as well as archiving old images. my intent is to get through all the old work that y'all may not have seen. Once this is through the blog will become more streamlined. What I mean by this is that it will be up to date with my work. The new posts will reflect my new work and interests. Along with showing new work at a later date I will also make time to show you bits and pieces of my life and living situation in New York as well as posts concerning music, art and culture that influences my view. Unfortunately this blog falls pretty low on my list of priorities at the moment. For this reason I have semi-declined self promoting this blog since I cannot devote the time that it deserves. For now here are some tasty random images for your eyes to feast on. I would also like to emphasize that I do not necessarily consider any of this my best work. It is not a cohesive or refined body of work and for that I apologize. But it is about the image and the image alone. So to all those negative nancies out there... go fuck yourself.
