Drive By Shooting: Washington DC, Christmas 2009

It's Christmas Afternoon, so in between lots of cookies and lots of Turkey and Ham, I took a drive and took some shots of the beautiful White Christmas we had here in DC.

I used to snowboard down this hill on a Burton Backhill in 1984
The one statue is crying on the other statue's shoulder because the health care reform bill was passed yesterday morning within these walls.
Security Issue Number One: Protecting the National Menorah.


When I was a kid, there was a pretty good chance of getting car jacked or robbed around this area in the evening, now there is a Whole Foods.
Neither rain, nor snow, nor dark of night can stop a hipster in tight jeans on Christmas day riding his fixed gear through Adams Morgan.
I attempted to locate the Prime Minister of Malaysia but he wasn't here. My mission continues...

Drive By Shooting, Cairns, Australia Part 2

If you were a guy in North America playing this sport you would be considered a wanker, but in OZ, it's all good.


Check out that new high speed internet satellite dish, I am getting one installed at my office.
Everyone is always welcome at church, they need some cash too!


This guy would kick your freakin ass! You ever seen that movie Wolf Creek? Go watch it, based on a true story from the Outback.
I couldn't have asked for a better place for someone to ditch their couch. Made for a great photo, thank you.

Woolworths is like Wal-Mart of Australia.
Guess what this sign copied?

Drive By Shooting: Cairns, Australia Part 1

Typical 'Queenslander' home, built high to keep out water, crocs and all the snakes.

This was lucky that he saw me taking the pic and waved.
Why don't we have sick cars like this in the US?


They have some serious trucks in the Far North Queensland. These mates don't mess around.




This guy in the neckbrace has a cigarette in his hand. I probably would too.


The industry Cairns was built on: Sugar Cane.
Worked for me.

Drive by Shooting: Newport Beach, 4th of July

Just looking through my old photos and forgot to post my Drive By Shooting from the 4th of July last year. These were all shot from bicycle, because you just don't drive on the 4th of July in Newport Beach. This year, I got the hell out of town, too many 4ths in a row in Newport can get old, here's why:

That's a rip off for a taxi.
80's Speedboat, 80's chicks, cigarettes and a mohawk: Recipe for a good time!
Is this guy really pissed off or does he always look like that? Either way, no smart ass comments from me directed towards him.
Wait, I thought blow was legal?



If you are ever not quite sure if you are a douchebag, just tie a red bandana around your neck and you are guaranteed the title.

Paparazzi

I was just carrying it for a friend, and the weed in the backpack isn't mine either.
This sums it all up.
Here's a great idea that will get these guys a ton of chicks. Make an energy drink that looks like cocaine. Really smart. Literally thousands of girls in the streets, 3 dudes on a balcony. Guess it the million dollar idea didn't work out too well.

The cops were hamming it up with all the chicks they could find, why not?
See you next year!

Drive By Shooting: Sumba, Part 1

My latest update from my Drive By Shooting Series: Sumba, Indonesia.

In case you are new to my Drive By Shooting Series, all the photos are taken from the vehicle while it's moving. I often times just shoot right through the glass, so you will see some of the reflections on occasion.

This Drive By Series was taken on the way from the Airport in Sumba to where we were staying. Sumba is an interesting island in the Indonesian chain. Although it's twice the size of Bali, I think we were in the only hotel on the entire island, compared to probably a thousand on Bali. A serious malaria problem, lack of infrastructure and overall rough conditions keep most tourists away. I was there for 2 weeks and never saw another tourist. I was fortunate enough to get invited along on a trip to check out some off the grid surf spots and local culture. These photos were just the beginning.

Drive By Shooting Los Angeles Part 1

So I inspired myself with those driving iPhone photos a couple weeks ago. I grabbed the G10 and drove around LA a bit the other day, had lunch with some friends and shot some photos from the car. Driving can get pretty boring, so why not spice it up with concentrating on something else, like photography! Just kidding, remember I am a professional, so don't try this at home.

I am actually getting pretty into this, so expect to see some more eye candy soon.
