GET WELL SOON MR. JACKSON

If anyone has questions about F.I.C. (Feline Idiopathic Cystitis), feel free to consult me. Vet's can be suspiciously uninformative. Their pet health care system mirrors our own. For example, I had to pay $30 for subcutaneous fluids (i.e. 125 cc's of sterile saline, i.e. salt water.)  My Pops ran into the exact same type of what he called "extortion" from the elder care center when his folks were on their way out, for i.v. drip bags (1 Liter of saline), costing $45. He inquired the hospital about how much they buy theirs wholesale: 1 dollar, twenty five cents.

GABBA GABBA HEY, GET OFF MY CLOUD!

Halloween weekend show at the Blue Moon Tavern. Odd to think it was an old stomping ground for Kerouac. Now it's just another college pub. Rawmones crushed it that night.

WAYZGOOSE

First time for me and mine visiting Letter Press event at SVC, called "Wayzgoose" this weekend. Definitely need more time, to peruse and get a poster printed next year. Several groups print all day via large poster plates, hand-rolled ink, and a steam roller. They hang them from the balcony railings of the buildings successive floors. Very cool. Print shop, movable type bins and machines are inside. Highly recommended event.

Get out whilst you can...

First and so far only trek into the real woods this season. Mt Townsend, while ill but happy.

Inner Beauty

Just returned from East Coast. This was taken in Virginia, which, to some, is still part of the 11 Confederate States. Warm and cuddly.

South Park (AKA The Shire, Marble Madness, Star Gate)

DISPOSITION

School has consumed my life. It's all I have to show for anything lately.

Photo illustration self portraits. We choose our own battles...

Sun Over Marin

Another fun school assignment. Full re-creation, before and after. Reminds me of South Bay.

Perched Aloft

Photoshop assignment for school. Supposed to be a self portrait, using only our own photos. Smoke and ashes in city still sort of pending.....need to take smoke/cloud tutorial from my 2,343,576 page textbook. My gaiters look like leg warmers. 

GOLF THUG LIFE

This one's for the old man, who is bewildered by the plethora of "No Skateboarding" signs in public domain. Well, turns out, we aint the only vandals.

The 4th Dimension is Mind

This is Elliot Ave from 2 perspectives, North-bound, then South-bound. I bent space and time. Seattle can never get its fill of colorful corners.

Flash Blizzard W/ Flash

Lastnights flash snowstorm was a fun surprise. I enjoy "harsh" weather, just as long as it changes with the seasons. Using a flash in falling snow added a stipple effect to the graffiti shots. Wish it had all stuck around longer than morning.

 Learned this move from Danny Torrance.

 

"And just like that -poof, it was gone..."

Eyes Wide Shut Me Down

First project in class at AIS. I put some solid effort into it, 12 layers/7 channels, and the teacher said, "eh, it was just to get you working, I don't even want to see it."

How could you deny that face??

AMAZING VS. AWESOME

La Push vs. Cascades from Quinn Davis on Vimeo.

HOME IS WHERE THE BOARD IS.

CRAZY AS A...

Lake Ozette loon in the morning, kayak camping trip, end of season.

Skate Rock(s)

Early shot of Matt Pailes (pre-rasta-affliction) at a Think demo on Bainbridge Island circa '95. Backside 180 over ramp-to-ramp, it's a make. I think this is probably my first skate photo ever taken, on my old trusty Pentax Asahi. (RIP) I need to find the negative so I can get an un-scrapbooked version up. I always liked this foto.

This is back in the day where you would actually skate with guys at a demo, not the sidelined spectacles they do nowadays. I made a frontside 180 over that thing, happy at the time, only to be chagrined at having shinsplints for the month following. Adrenaline is bliss.

Pop Rally

Falling behind with material. 

From the Rally To Restore Sanity, in Seattle at Westlake.
Kinda weird going there to watch a mega-flatscreen in the rain.
Always good to see McDermott.

SLOWLY GETTING MY GROOVE BACK

On the way to Ozette...
