El día mejor en Mexico

Mario - un vaquero verdadero!
En Puerto Morelos - Boca de Puma.  Fanástico!

jet lag has its benefits...

Cancun sunrise.

memories of cold

As I head to a warmer climate for the next week, I leave a memory of cold London behind...

let sleeping families lie

The Roth family takes a well deserved, 10 second nap together during a brief portrait session. Their daughter, Anika Mei, arrived in this world 5 days before I took this picture.  I'm guessing this pic represents what they wish they could be doing (rather than what most of their days are like).  Love these guys.

robot restaurant

In Shinjuku, packed amongst the crowded streets of lights, Japanese pimps, and mayhem, there's a little place called Robot Restaurant.  It's advertised around Tokyo by cars towing not so little robot ladies with not so little breasts.  After descending a couple of floors to a reflective, neon tomb, sampling the meal, and having my brain almost short circuited by the overload of glow sticks, scantily clad women, and yes, dancing robots, it's a fair assessment to say that the price of admission wasn't for the food...

Valentine's Day (one week late)

I intended this for Valentine's day, but alas, I missed it by a week.  Happy belated day of love, flowers and reasons to buy Hallmark cards and boxes of chocolates.  And for those who are anti V-day, happy anti all of that!

lady in red

Beautiful sunlight, beautiful subject.  Allison, looking badass in her red dress and shades, waits to attend an awards luncheon.

Having failed miserably at my color assignment in grad school,  I'm always on the lookout for pictures where color is 'important.'  It's been 7 or 8 years now, as a fellow photoj friend said, perhaps it's time to let go!  Or maybe, we should learn from our failures but not obsess about them...there's a life lesson in there somewhere.  In any case, for the red, the light, and simply being so cool (hot?), Allison is my pic of the day.
