Oh DC Rollergirls let me count the ways in which I love thee... I shot the ladies again just for kicks, because it's such great material basically.

I mean, the champs go by the moniker, "Scare Force One," how great is that? And the giant below, her name is "Six-foot-five on Skates." Awesome.

Pillowfighting is one of those rare lost rites of youth that every once and awhile needs to be brought out and shared amongst the elderly. At least I'm not alone in this thought.

Ok, so admittedly, the headliner for this show was local legends Le Loup, however, I have to say, I was most impressed by the Ruby Suns, a psychedelic trio from New Zealand.

Le Loup.

And... Bellman Barker.

And Chris, at the afterparty downstairs looking hot, as usual.

While home in SF I had the occasion to visit our country home in Pt. Reyes, CA. I made some composite images of the property with the little house nestled way in the background.

A view of the hot tub, with it's glorious view of the hillside.

I was in San Francisco for the COLAGE (Children Of Lesbians And Gays Everywhere) board meeting last month, participating as a member of the board. We had an awesome reception Friday night at the CTWO house in Oakland.

I returned to Soussa Middle School with Critical Exposure last month to continue working with the kids and shoot some portraits.

Yes, there really are metal detectors upon entering DC public middle schools, in fact, this is normally an elementary school, but due to the finding of asbestos in the kids normal middle school they have been temporarily relocated.
