This part of the world is amazing. Beautiful, wide open vistas, that show the power of simple wind and rain against hard stone. Hard to define the vastness with a camera.

Vista Washer Woman-photo Friday
June 24th, 2010
Was so absorbed in taking this photo that not one but two nice officers pulled up to ask me what I was doing in the middle of Vista!
The washer lady was in the sun, and the background was green and in the shade. A little “Davidization” and here you have it. Worthy of the 2011 calendar?

Canyon County-Photo Bonus
June 16th, 2010
Spent the day chasing shadows down by the Snake. Was looking for wide vistas and scenic beauty. Long time readers will not be surprised that I found these old Willy’s trucks “outstanding in their field.”
Oh and this one!

Rockin’Jake at Jo’s Sunshine
June 12th, 2010
Presented by The Boise Blues Society!
Tuesday June 14th @ 8th.
No Cover, That’s right FREE
Since its founding in 1998, the New Orleans Musicians’ Clinic has been an innovative, not-for-profit, occupational medicine and wellness partnership, offering affordable, comprehensive health care to the New Orleans community’s most precious resource: its musicians. The NOMC is a program of the New Orleans Musicians Assistance Foundation (NOMAF). Collaborative health partners are LSU Healthcare Network, Daughters of Charity Services of New Orleans, and St. Anna’s Mission to Musicians and Medical Mission.
The clinic is losing federal funds that cover over 90% of its operating costs. As a former patient of the clinic, and an ardent believer and supporter of the Clinic’s mission, Rockin’ Jake wants to get the word out about the loss of funding. His personal mission is to raise awareness of the Clinic and its needs, and help provide important healthcare services for his fellow musicians. Therefore, a portion of The Rockin’ Jake Band’s merchandise sales (Badmouth Hot Sauce, T-Shirts and CDs) from every show this summer will be donated to the NOMC, to help fellow musicians continue to receive care at the Clinic.
Based in New Orleans since 1990, Rockin’ Jake relocated briefly to Dallas, TX after being flooded out by Hurricane Katrina, and then settled in St. Louis, MO. Rockin’ Jake has been hailed by many as one of the premier harmonica players in the country.
As Rockin’ Jake and his band bring the flavors of New Orleans Blues and Zydeco coast to coast, come on out and support live music and help Save the Musicians’ Clinic! To make a direct donation to NOMC, go to www.savetheclinic.org

Art, Sun and 75 at the City Market!!!
June 10th, 2010
Summer in the City!!!! A SUNNY Saturday sounds so good, I think we should celebrate with an early bird special at this weeks Boise City Market. Come see me at my regular spot right in front of the Brick Oven Beanery before 11:00am and anything in the booth is 20.% off. I will also be digging out the “Bargian Bin” stuff with a whole winters worth of interesting inventory.
Spent the week prepping some new metal prints and hand printing and mounting a whole batch of new 11×14 prints mated and ready to place in a 16×20 frame. Come early and beat the crowds, save a little. A cuppa coffee would be nice too.
If you are on the Eagle side of the valley, I have a few works at the:

It has to be true. . .
June 9th, 2010
I heard it at a coffee shop.
The origin of the photo term “shoot” comes from the noise and bright light of the old flashes.
