This past August I spent a very hot summer day with a few of the team riders from Original Skateboards, an east coast company making ridiculously smooth longbaords.  Keeping up with them at the Brooklyn banks on my longboard, while shooting, was not as easy as I had originally envisioned and that is why my left elbow is still a bit larger than my right.  Check out a rough edit of that day at my Dripbook page.  It’s not quite a full story yet but let me know what you think. Also let me know your impression of Dripbook, one of many semi-free artist networking sites that allows you to post a portfolio in a pretty well designed flash template.

I have the great fortune to know Norman Vladimir, NY based singer/songwriter and all around good guy.  Vladimir was performing at Eight Mile Creek in SoHo last weekend and allowed me to take a few snaps.  Check out Norman here.

Welcome to my new blog!  This is the first of many posts, come back soon.
