I am pumped to offer my first limited edition digital silver c-prints. Each of these will be an edition of 25. I just received three of the four prints below from the printer and I'm really pleased with the way they turned out. They will be off to the framer next week.
The image below was shot on my first trip to Cuba. We found a bar and sat in the back and this woman came in with a giant smile. She was a prostitute, as it turned out, and when I pointed my lens her direction she gave me her big smile.

I shot the image below on my second trip to Cuba. It was a windy winter day and while I was crossing a street this car stopped. I had enough time to get this one image. It's of a collectivo, which is essentially a less expensive shared taxi service for locals.

A few years back I was on a fishing trip in Chilean Patagonia and stopped by this remote gaucho outpost. The people I was with wanted to say hello and ask about access to a nearby river. We spent a couple of hours with two gauchos in their home drinking Escudo (a Chilean beer) and having toast with jelly. They were in a really talkative mood. One gaucho made sure I always had a cold Escudo. I can't imagine they get many visitors. One of the two gauchos had these really large spurs and allowed me to take a picture of them.

Silver Creek & Picabo are essentially in my back yard and my favorite local place to take pictures.

I photographed a duck hunt for the first time a few evenings ago near Silver Creek. It was a spectacular evening with warm temps topping it off...

Here's an image of a moonrise over a desolate East Cape (Baja, Mex.) beach a few years back. This image was used as the opening spread on a story on Baja in this summer's issue of The FlyFish Journal.

I have a new page on this web site titled, Travel. It will perpetually be evolving as I head to new places.

We had a fall snowstorm through most of the day today. Our fall colors are just starting yet it feels a bit more like November...

It's been on the cold side for September. Snow on the mountains and even on the valley floors for a day or so. The leaves are just starting to turn but it's felt like late October. Elk are bugling and sand hill cranes are on their annual migration south making their pre-historic garble as they circle at great heights and barley stubble and cheat grass and even rabbitbrush have taken on their yellow hues while smoke bellows out of a two-room house chimney along a ditch somewhere in Mackay, Idaho.

I am selling my used Nikon D810 camera body. I am the original owner and have owned it for approx. 17 months. I have the original box and users manual. The reason I'm selling it is that I'll be purchasing the Nikon D850 in the months to come. This camera is in very good condition. I am asking $1,800.

Here are the specs:
Excited to pick up from the framer my first limited edition prints. The three prints are each 16" x 24" with a frame size of 24 3/4" x 32". I view them as a set of three. They cost $1,200 (framed) individually or $3,000 (also framed) for the set of three. I am limiting each image to 100 prints plus an artists proof.
The images were shot this July on Silver Creek.

Smoky skies are the new norm for August. Thunderstorms have been rolling through too, compounding the surreal color cast with a muggy and palpable sky. Sometimes it smells like sweet pipe smoke. The rest of the time it's not discernible to my nose. Burning sage and bitterbrush to the south and I suppose some cheatgrass as well. Lodgepole pines are getting cremated to the north. A visual amalgamation of sorts: muted, Impressionistic, cold-blue in August, and teary-eyed.

Tricos are now pretty much on each morning at Silver Creek...

Heat of the day. Packed SUV's leave dust contrails on their way north with float tubes plastered to the roofs. Pretty soon Silver Creek is left with those who don't know any better or those who hope the weed beds will soon be smothered in a giant blue orgy. I've banked on it plenty of times and come up empty handed. It's a bit of a roll of the dice, but when it happens and enough fish are keyed into Damselflies, it'll make for a memorable afternoon.
