Kona, HI

  I've been in Kona for the last week and I have 2 more weeks before I return to NC. I lived here for almost 2 years in the late 90's after college- surfing and teaching scuba... it really was the good life but after a while the distance from my family became too much so Eastbound I returned. 6 months ago my Dad moved out here for good and I'm loving my reunion with the reefs that used to be my backyard.

  It's not just the ocean that holds the appeal here, it's the flora and faces and even the scent of the air that creates a full sensory experience when on the Big Island. I find it challenging to capture it's essence in digital media format because a camera can't smell or feel... but I try nonetheless!

The Craft

A Craft is an artform with function. Regardless of it's application, whether it's woodworking, surfboard shaping, visual media or just the way you live your life... if it's unique, rewarding and worthy; it's a craft!

My buddy Allen crafts surfboards that reflect his attitude on life: a helix of retro and rowdiness with a dash of earth-tones. I craft photographs- an attempt to combine the other four senses into one visual experience that, if performed well- might create an emotion.

Decisions...

Sometimes the right direction in life isn't obvious... but take your time, and in general go with either your gut or your heart. Even if things don't pan out, you won't have any regrets. And like my Grandmother says, "Shoot for the Moon, because even if you miss it, you'll land amongst the Stars"...

IN-SEA Images: Always right?

It seems that much of the animal life I shoot tends to swim to the right, my right that is... or perhaps I am often more interested in the right sides of their bodies as they swim by, as if I actually had a choice in the matter... I'm strangely reminded of the film Zoolander.

Anyway, these images are for sale on large format canvas gallery frames. I hope you enjoy looking at them as much as I enjoyed asking the subjects to "Say... SUSHI!" Please e-mail me for prices and sizes... plenty more to come so stay tuned :)
