“Cold War Relic”

Not too many people remember gasoline globes. This is one of the rarest examples ever found. It is the only one of its kind. Even though the “A-Bomb” brought me quite a few nightmares as a kid, this is a beautiful globe and I wish I could add it to my ever withering collection…

“I wanna be like Mike”

Mike Peters has just wrapped up a digital presentation of his work called “The Dream” It will hopefully find a publisher soon. He hopes to print four narrow books and then put them into a slipcase. That would be fantastic! I have decided to crop my work from now on as a tribute to Mike, who lugs his Hasselblad around everywhere and makes me wish that I had one too. I remember what it feels like to compose an image with a larger camera and then attain critical focus. You just sense the potential of the image in a different way than with 35 mm. Of course I’m sort of kidding here, but another thing which Mike has, that I covet is…Four cars! I just want one…
