Oh yeah, it's a metaphor. The brake has busted loose. Now what? Do we flail helplessly? Do we have faith in the ropes about us? Or do we realize that without a fork this is a hopeless cause?

On the North Shore of Vancouver there's a guy that imports Japanese motorcycles for a living.

And there you are, staring at a sign that's older than you are, trying your best to put it all in context.

It's not much, but it's what I did today, welded bicycles. These are the chainstays for the second bike in a week I've decided to melt together. It should be done in a day or two, and then it's on to the next one.

They say one of the beautiful things about Calgary is that you can see the mountains from town.

This one didn't quite turn out the way I wanted. I might try it again in a week or so.

It's probably a little too saturated for even my liking, or not enough because it still has a semblance to a real place, but it's a good picture for me because everything was so washed out in rural Alberta today as I rode my motorcycle through the countryside and yet this image has life.

Again, part of the Home series. It's becoming an interesting subtext. I don't put up all the photos I have for this series, perhaps that will be the next project...

Edges and contrails. Connection and connectivity. Bridging the gap.

I've been switching back and forth between two cameras and the difference in aspect ratio to me is like a punch in the face. The Nikon is a bit squatter, the Canon a bit taller. It's not much of a difference but it feels huge right now.

I noticed this spot in my neighborhood about three days ago on one of the very few occasions I didn't have a camera on me and I've been itching to get back there. In hindsight it's good that I had to go back because if I had a camera on me the first time it would have been the Canon and I think the squatter ratio (even if slightly) is more suited to this composition. I know, I could crop the taller image, but that's never been what this project is about. I would suggest that less than 2% of what is on here has had any cropping done and I can only think of one image that I've cropped significantly. Other than that they've all been full frame images composed on the spot.

Fall is here, the light comes in low and sneaks up on you. Everything looks greasy.
