Not Dead Yet...






Despite all outward appearances, neither this blog (nor myself) are anywhere close to being dead...








A mix of different projects has been keeping me away from my computer for the past few weeks, and I've either been out in the field working on corporate headshots (with the photo just above and to the right NOT being one of those headshots), or getting back and involved with the world of video production (where I'd previously worked for more than 20 years), or sitting in my mad scientist lab creating more crazy lil' lighting and camera mounts.   

Regarding the whole "sitting in my mad scientist lab" situation and creating more of those "crazy lil' lighting and camera mounts," let me just say that the words "Patent Pending" can now be officially applied to one of my crazy lil' mounts (thanks to the U.S. Patent Office).  There will be much more to say about this in the weeks to come...  

Oh...  And the photo up above?  Shot this past weekend while visiting a sheep farm in  Central Oregon.  The skull has actually been lit with a small Chimera softbox from just slightly above the frameline (and -- yes -- I wandered the farm with a softbox in hand) with a Vivitar 285 at 1/4 power inside the softbox.
