At the airport at YVR on the way to NRT with our John Fluevogs. I know I rarely have self portraits, and even more rare is a picture of my wife……. as per usual, I’m doing Blue Steel…..
(P.S. I’m not getting paid to promote Moo.com. I just love their products and want to share!)
I’m going to re-post some older pictures since some amazing shots were sort of lost in past postings, as I use to post up to 12 pictures in a single blog entry!!
This picture was taken at my youngest brother’s wedding in Osaka a few years back. Up to that point, between myself and my big brother (I have 3 brothers and a sister), we had taken all family wedding pictures. This was the first wedding we could enjoy without being completely stressed out…. but old habits die hard!! I still brought 3 cameras with me!!
This is Miho, my sister-in-law’s cousin. She’s a professional hip-hop dancer, but for the wedding, she decided to go ultra traditional with her kimono…or did she? Look at her dreadlock updo!! I liked the contrast in styles, or perhaps it’s more of a juxtaposition? The bright red colour of the kimono and the red in her hair-do actually worked really well; as well as the layering of the kimono and the similar layering of her dreadlocks. And perhaps because she’s a dancer by profession, her personality and her composure allowed her to pull off this cool look.
As mentioned on my earlier post, as I was shooting this race I became more aware and interested in the expressions of these riders versus the bikes themselves, even though I’m an avid bike rider. That’s why I decided to crop the bikes out of the picture. In this shot, I liked the way the setting sun spotlighted Erik Mulder #67, but shadowed Baily McKnight, who actually placed 40 spots higher by the end of the race. No posing here folks. These are real expressions. Ride On!!
