"Snowball Across The Face!"

"Snowball Across The Face!"

I met Dylan Lappin (right) and his lifelong buddy while out shooting the New York's first blizzard of 2010.  He yelled from across the street "hey buddy, take a shot of me doing a back flip in to a tremendous mound of snow".  Did that and we got to talking and eventually shooting more "Jackass" sort of fun, absurd and relatively dangerous stuff - this was just painful (and painful to watch) but they had a blast doing it.  More to come on this and maybe even an entire series.

"Lonely Road"

"Lonely Road"

The only thing missing is a person walking on the line, in the middle of the road/shot.  I think that would tell a story or two for some. 

Shot in Chloride, Arizona as part of my yet to be titled and on-going project (or projects) from America's western states.  Rushing to catch my plane (spoke of this in an earlier post from the same day), I envisioned this old road from one of my standard angles - hopped out of the car - good ole' boy music playing in the background - and snapped.  I also have the same picture as a black and white.
