NYC MESSENGERS

I have more photos coming from my recent trip to NYC, so check back.  Sorry Squid for the wait, hope you’re checking in! I’m about to plan my next trip for more photos towards my project.  San Francisco, here I come.  Time to burn up another frequent flyer ticket!

Who sends YOU annoying mass emails???

For me, my older sister is “that guy”, or “that GAL”, I should say, or “Quella Persona”.  I know a few people who send emails like this.   My granddad sends some good ones.  I’ll post one of his here, soon. Once I got this email from someone who wanted me to get angry about the [...]

Good morning from 12,450 ft, and my BRILLIANT economic plan!

So funny, three days ago I was running a 1/2 Marathon in shorts and a t-shirt (and brand spankin new shoes – I have balloon blisters as a souvenir!) This morning was a totally different scene as I skinned up (hiking with sticky skis) Arapahoe Basin from base to summit. The top elevation is 12,450 [...]

1/2 Marathon Race Report: I lost!

I don’t know why I am not sleeping right now.  I just got back to Colorado from a weekend in AZ shooting a wedding on Sat and running a 1/2 Marathon by P.F. Everything Tastes The Same’s earlier today. I declared that I would crush Eric, who harassed me to run this stupid thing!  I [...]

Rough week for some friends…

This is coming straight from my Thursday email, but I thought even passers-by might find value in a leasson I have learned this week: This has been a hard week for some friends.  A couple of my friends lost someone to a plane crash and another friend lost his father to a surgery that went [...]

Does anyone read?

Just curious, does anyone actually read my Thursday emails?  Does anyone read the text in my blog?  Or just look at the pictures?  It’s OK if you are only a looker I am not offended!  I am just ticked to death that you are here!  I am just curious.    Carry on

1/2 Marathon, anyone? PF Everything-Tastes-The-Same’s

A while ago my friend Eric started bothering me to run this 1/2 Marathon with him in AZ. “yeah, sure, whatever, let’s do it” was probably my response. Months go by. I totally forget about my promise. Last week I get a call from Eric and he’s calling to make sure I signed up. The [...]

House for Rent

Welp, I am spending most of my time in Silverthorne and only in Denver a few days a week. I told the owner of my Denver place (who lives in San Diego) that I’d help him rent out the house so I took a few photos of it and will be putting an ad in [...]

Who on Earth is this Avril girl from France?!?!?

People, PEOPLE!!! I have been getting emails and texts from some of my peeps about the email from Avril (below). That was a TOTALLY 100% completely made-up email. I was trying to be super obvious about that (i.e. “you are like a photographic GOD”, and “I have studied your work since I was a child”, [...]

Take a peek into my Point-and-Shoot

Recently I got this email from one of my peeps: “Dear Mark, You don’t know me, but I live in France and I have studied your photography ever since I was a child. My dream has always been to photograph just 100th more like you. You have always been my idol. I think if I [...]
