International Talk Like a Pirate Day

So International Talk Like a Pirate Day was this past friday, Sept 19th. The Donnybrook Writing Academy hosted a little TLAP party, running along with a local CD release show.

Laurie Scavo and Nina Barry were on hand taking photos. Check it out..

Oil on the Beach

The Surfrider Foundation's started a new blog about the renewed effort to allow offshore drilling in the US. As an avid surfer and ocean lover, I'd like to share it with you:

DPUMS

Spent a few days at the Denver Post Underground Music Showcase, listening to tons of bands at a bunch of venues along Denver's lower Broadway. Even shot a few photos.. check out the flickr stream. Of course, there were a ton of other photographers there, all being far more prolific than I ever am at these events.

Donnybrook

So I've started this temporary gig - moonlighting as a photo editor for The Donnybrook Writing Academy. It's a fun, sophisticated, tongue-in-cheek blog covering music and society here in the Denver area. Personally I think they're ready to go national.

Inspecting, processing, shooting (occasionally), and now editing - let's see how long I can keep up this pace.

Denver Post

It's always nice to see your images in print, especially as a stock photographer. This morning I opened the paper to check out a friend's shots - she'd had quite a few images featured with a story. Funny that I should run across one of my own; comedian Ben Kronberg is in town and the Denver Post ran a story on him.

Life as an Image Inspector

Fellow iStock Inspector Rasmus Rasmussen has written up a nice little piece on what we do, touching on things like compression, chromatic aberration, fishheads and the need for a properly calibrated monitor. Check it out here.

Update

Some of the Utah RR2 images are in my flickr feed.. a few of the istock inspectors got together for an evening shoot. Good times indeed.

I've also added a few images to the published work section of this site.
