Although this post will soon be buried behind countless numbers of ‘previous entries’ buttons, the significance of the first post is overwhelming. I wasn’t able to decide between a satirical self portait from high school photography class (well over 20yrs ago) or an image that represented a personal breakthrough in my commitment to the craft. Obviously I went with the later. This is a special image to me for a very singular reason. I did it. I ride by this rock several times a week on my evening mountain bike rides. Every time I do, I say to myself that would make a great image. Finally, after years of saying that to myself, I went and made it happen. It is a personal reminder that there are millions of images in the world that have yet to me made, but they don’t make themselves.
