directions
I don't know why I never noticed
these before, but I love that the street names are carved directly into the
Haseltine Building.
|
08.02.05
haseltine
Yet another famous historic
Portland building, named for a prominent philanthropic Oregon family.
|
08.03.05
annex
This is an addition to the New
Market Block that I shot a few
days ago.

A typical summer day in the
Columbia Gorge, though fewer windsurfers than usual.

postcards
A dear friend has spent the summer
driving cross country and sent us these postcards along the way.

pillow
Hobbes dearly loves to lay his
head in my hand and go to sleep. I pretend it annoys me, but secretly, I love it
more than he does.

fierce
Smaug is hard to photograph
because she won't sit still long enough. She also thinks she's a lot scarier
than she is, so I decided to play around with filters and coloring a bit to make
her the fierce tiger of her imagination.

syndication
Thank Eru for late-night reruns
that don't suck. Being a night owl, I depend on decent background noise while I
natter away at my little projects into the wee hours.

salvation
When the mercury climbs past 90
degrees, this is the only thing that stands between me and acts of desperation
that could get me thrown in jail.
|

season one
Prime Meridian is a tv-crack
dealing pimp-ho who not only got us hooked on the
BSG crack earlier this year,
but now has us hooked on the
VM crack through, um, not-at-all-
copyright-infringing bit torrenting of all 22 episodes onto TV-playable DVDs.

scissors
Sometimes it's fun to try to make
the most mundane objects look kinda cool.
|
08.12.05
welcome home
We hosted a party to welcome back
our friend, who spent her summer traveling across the country.

Coming home from a fun day spent
with friends.

sunday morning
This is the breakfast area in our
new master suite. The dishes were my anniversary present to Sal.
|

shooting assignment: "texture"
These purple chenille pillows were
the inspiration color for our living room walls.
|
08.16.05
shooting assignment: "numbers"
These numbers are becoming
uncomfortably familiar.

shooting assignment: "vigil"
|
08.18.05
shooting assignment: "rear view"
Drizzly morning commute in my
dirty rear view mirror.
|
08.19.05
shooting assignment: "warm"
When your thermostat reads 85
degrees, it's at least 10 degrees hotter in your non-air conditioned house.

teamwork
It took four of us to light
candles for the vigil. I think the breeze created that flame effect the camera
caught.
|
08.22.05
shooting assignment: "M"
My "get through the workday"
pills. Dosage depends on the type of day I'm having.
|
08.23.05
shooting assignment: "picture frame"
Twee-age aside, this is my
favorite of all of our frames.
|
08.24.05
shooting assignment: "book"
It should come as
no surprise that
this is probably my all-time favorite book. This is the nice, "for show" copy,
but the copies I actually fell in love with are battered and much-read.
|
 |
 |
 |
 |
08.25.05
shooting assignment: "symmetry"
The linoleum pattern on my kitchen
floor. I used to hate it, but it's grown on me over the years. I'm still
replacing it first chance I get, though.
|
08.26.05
shooting assignment: "bowl"
The cat bowl was a gift from Dad
and Malinda. It was the first piece we put in our built-in buffet.
|
08.27.05

Pioneer Place and downtown
Portland at night.

Downtown Portland city street.

08.29.05
shooting assignment: "puddle"
All that was left the day after a
drenching downpour.
|
08.30.05
shooting assignment: "flour"
We've had these blue canisters
since our first apartment. They've always held three things: sugar, rice, and of
course, flour.
|
08.31.05
shooting assignment: "disc"
A stack of discs waiting to be
burned with MP3s and TV bit torrents that aren't at all downloaded illegally.
Nope, not at all.
