Banco in Situ

Cold nights means Banco has to take luxurious benefit of each sunny afternoon.

Cropduster

Last week, our niece, aka Cropduster, arrived for a brief weekend visit.  We took the ex- roller derbyist to see how the big girls play. The LA Derby Dolls did not disappoint with a nail biter of a finale.

Beauty at Night

A remarkable beauty shot we did last week. Can hardly wait to see the cut.

Hills at Dusk

We were up in the Hollywood Hills last week doing a commercial. The dusky views are worth the multiple million dollar price tags.

Stand In Magic

I took this whacky photo of our stand in model last week.  Don't know how or why the camera reacted the way it did.  But the flares are very interesting.

Thanksgiving Day Massacre

The bird didn't stand a chance..........

Cold


With cold weather approaching fast, the flowers and bees are enjoying one last warm day.

Citrus



The limes have been great for a few weeks and now the oranges and lemons are beginning to turn color and ripen.

Banco and Coco


I keep think of Avedon's famous portrait of Chanel when I wind up under Banco during one of our rough house sessions. They both have amazing necks although Banco's seems a bit looser.
Her ears are pretty muscular, too.

Night Jasmine

The night blooming jasmine has loved the recent hot weather and has been smelling great.  Next to some rye grass, one of WL's aloe vera's is also sprouting a flowering stalk.

Perfect Fall

 The Catskills were blazing with color last weekend. It was the perfect weekend for hiking, cooking, apple hunting and log fires.

Morning Light

The morning light of the Catskills, skidding off the pond and into Ellen's home, filtered by antique windows.

Praying in the Front

Been seeing a few Praying Mantis around the neighborhood lately.  This afternoon, a full grown mantis is checking out the Mystic Spires in front.

Parrilla

Our location scout, Tanque, made a wonderful asado a day after the shoot.  Where we were able to mingle and thank the local crew and actors.

Juampi And Me

My excellent Argentine colleague and fellow gaffer, Juampi on set and at home with his two banditos.

Tenting

The sun came up on us during the last night of shooting. So while the crew was packing away equipment, we tented in a campfire and finished with close ups on our actors and hamburgers.
