2017 NorCal winter

With all the storms that we have been getting it's made for some dramatic sky's.  These are images taken along the coast from San Francisco to Santa Cruz.

Classic point break

One of the best thing about living in Northern California is being so close to Santa Cruz. When the winds have the surf blown in San Francisco its great to make the drive down the coast to get some fun waves as shown.

Santa Cruz, California  

Yangon

I photographed this Hill tribe man in Yangon back when Aung San Suu Kyi was still on house arrest and would be for the next 15 years. I thought it was really interesting seeing this hill tribe man set against this weathered wall in this crazy city just taking a rest. I am guessing by his age that his tattoo's were not done in a studio and his leg tattoo's indicate he is from a hill tribe. I didn't get to experience any indigenous cultures in Myanamar as the government had closed off all travel to those parts of the country.  During this time I only shot with 35mm film and a 50mm lens. I would have to get really close to my subjects to get photographs like this.
