Food Prep : FOOD PREP - BEHIND THE SCENE OF QUINCY MARKET ARTISTS STATEMENT: The glorified food/souvenir court of Quincy Market in Boston is a popular attraction for both tourists and locals alike. The center "court" houses about 30 ethinic fast-food shops and, on the weekend, is an ideal location for "people watching". However, I wanted to show the other side of the market. For all the thousands of tourists that enjoy the variety of culinary choices and social atmosphere of Quincy Market, there are those few who are are working hard, behind the scenes, to provide. These individuals are easily overlooked as one passes by... mesmerized by the edible goods that are carefully placed in and on counters to attract the attention of the masses. But to do so, is to miss the opportunity to witness, in many cases, the skill attributed to the making of what one has come to Quincy market to enjoy. The Pizza Maker tossing dough, the Bread Maker baking with long hooked rods, etc.

An Obsession with Boats : AN OBSESSION WITH BOATS "There is nothing- absolutely nothing- half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats." - RATTY

An Obsession with Boats

Get'n Outside : GET'N OUTSIDE "Do not burn yourself out. Be as I am-a reluctant enthusiast... a part time crusader, a half-hearted fanatic. Save the other half of yourselves and your lives for pleasure and adventure. It is not enough to fight for the land; it is even more important to enjoy it. While you can. While it is still there. So get out there and mess around with your friends, ramble out yonder and explore the forests, encounter the grizz, climb the mountains. Run the rivers, breathe deep of that yet sweet and lucid air, sit quietly for a while and contemplate the precious stillness, that lovely, mysterious and awesome space. Enjoy yourselves, keep your brain in your head and your head firmly attached to your body, the body active and alive, and I promise you this much: I promise you this one sweet victory over our enemies, over those deskbound people with their hearts in a safe deposit box and their eyes hypnotized by desk calculators. I promise you this: you will outlive the bastards." - Edward Abbey

Dawn : DAWN “Listen to the exhortation of the Dawn! Look to this day! For it is Life, the very Life of Life. In its brief course lie all the verities and realities of your existence. The bliss of growth, The glory of action, The splendor of beauty; For yesterday is but a dream, And tomorrow is only a vision; But today well lived makes every yesterday a dream of happiness, and every tomorrow a vision of hope. Look well therefore to this day! Such is the salutation of the Dawn!” - KALIDASA

A Walk in the Woods : A WALK IN THE WOODS “I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I have not lived.” - Henry David Thoreau

Boardwalk Series : BOARDWALK SERIES Many of the nature reserve areas on the South Shore of Massachusetts provide boardwalks for negotiating over the inevitable swampy sections. I find these make interesting subjects to photograph because they are natural lines that lead the viewer through what is otherwise a typical tangle of brush and trees. This is an ongoing portfolio that is (albeit slowly) being developed.
