This is something I have NEVER done before, so I hope you all understand that this is very important to me. I made a donation to the Obama/Biden campaign and I am hoping to raise $1000.00 for the cause. I would greatly appreciate anyone that would like to support the campaign please do so by visiting my personal fundraising page here - Fundraising Page
..I want to be doing - Loop - I have the studio for it, just need to get the proper setup in the ceiling.
I have so many ideas in my head and I cannot do them, why, they take MONEY. I hate how that is the biggest obstacle I have, money should not stifle ones creative ideas, but it does.
I have a shoot tomorrow with Iris Moon, she has an outfit she made just for this shoot, I am hoping we have finally got the photographer/model thing worked out. I am still figuring out how to get what I want from her pose wise and she is still trying to understand how I work. It just happens sometimes that way, but we will overcome it and I think tomorrow is the day.
Over at my daughters house sitting for her and Z, something that makes me a very proud papa, seeing she has a wonderful home and a wonderful man in her life. She is starting out so much better than her mother and I did, she learned from the mistakes we made and found someone that balances her out. I can be happy living in a cardboard box honestly, but to know they have this great house together just makes me feel good for her.
I think my heart is dead…I really do
Yeah that came out of nowhere…more shots soon.

The first piece I am putting up for sale is ‘Sealed For Your Protection’
This is something new for me, don’t know if it will be something I use in the future or not, but I am at least giving them a try.
The bands were good, the chili fucking rocked and the Alley Cat girls stole the whole night. For those of you that did not make it to the show here are the pieces I had hanging.
I am off to try to get some sleep, I have to head over to the studio tomorrow and pick up my work and maybe give them a hand cleaning up. Hope everyone that did make it tonight had a good time, see you at the next show.

This was shot at the St. Louis Zoo, inside the reptile house. Hand-held shot into his aquarium, this meant slow shutter speeds, I was afraid I would get no good shots at all.
Well this frog decided to pose for me. He moved from the middle of the aquarium to the front glass, giving me a wonderful closeup shot. He would move from the hanging on the front glass to the spot you see pictured.
He did this for about 15 minutes, each time stopping and holding perfectly still, once I got a couple shots and move the camera away from my face, he would move and then freeze again.
He gave me a great story and memory to go with this series of images.
This show sounds like it is going to be a BLAST! I sent in my pieces last night, not sure if they are what they are looking for, time will tell. I was sent an invitation that allowed me to submit six pieces, which I was very surprised to get. Even if I don’t get any pieces in the show, Amber and I will be going to this even for sure.
