Look both ways before snapping the shutter. Sometimes the best shot is not right in front of you! In this case; not in the pool, but to my left... on the pool deck.

Last Hoorah
Went downtown... pa-pow!
Learned that good ol' Mondragon was closing. Intended to get in one last questionably sanitary meal from the restaurant known for serving food the best way for the past 18 years... The AAA way. All food, All Vegan, All the time!
...Except of course, when you're out of food.
Still downtown and famished. Saved by Boon Burger!
That's that!

In the dark
Hopefully I'll finish creating the "dream darkroom" before you can no longer buy film or darkroom chemicals (should that day ever come). Part of he process of building the perfect darkroom is taking on equipment from darkrooms that are no longer being used from other photographers. Taking on an entire darkroom worth of equipment is what we did yesterday and here are some of the interesting finds in the pile...
Old school film cartridges and canisters!
Kodak stuff!
Do not eat?
Marshall's stuff!
Super stoked. That's that!

The Book Store
Street photography, but not on the street...
...in the book store instead.
The nap.
Browsing.
GG Simpson?
Hidden in plain sight.
Parched.
Eye candy.
The end.

Remembering Lucas
We're taking a moment out of our regularly scheduled program to remember Lucas Thorvaldson September 12, 1993 - January 11, 2014. We'll be taking many more of these moments every time we hit up any of our many local skate parks, as they are all full of memories of Lucas.
I heard about Lucas before I ever met him as I knew his mother and she was often proudly talking about her two skateboarding sons. I knew there was a Josh and a Lucas, so I had a 50/50 chance of being right the first time I saw one of brothers. "Are you Josh?" I asked. "No I'm Lucas" he replied. That was that. I asked him how often he goes to the skate park and he informed me he was usually there 8 hours a day. I watched him skate and realized that he had the talent to show his 8 hours a day was time well spent.
Lucas showed up at his local skate park one late afternoon this past October with his good friend Tyler at his side. It had been so long since I bumped in to him that I made a mention of how surprising, yet great it was to see him out and about at the skate park. I would have never imagined in a million years that would be the last time we would ever cross paths. You truly will be missed.
Our condolences go out to all your family and your so many, many friends.
