This is tasty sample of images to be shown later this month at the St. Paul Art Crawl. I’m excited to finally present images from my past and current wanderings through various foreign countries. This show I’ll be hitting it all with portraits, Lomo, cityscapes and the occosional abandonment-the tasty bits! Take a look, and [...]
Flashes of white: : Gliding towards disaster and awkward photos. Bobbing towards soaring and deflation.
Find the creek… …then the dog harnesses… …take note of how the trees mix… …then blend… …how the colours jump to (dis) appear and layer!
Glimpse stars in unusual places: Hipster Asian bistro. Above gifts.
Found a piano up an empty stairwell Battled ninjas and turtles with our bare hands Shook our fists at life… Paused to listen Thought: ‘how many hands does one need to pray?”
….heeding a …a …or a
Mosaic mess. Multiple exposures action Paper patterns. Multiple exposures action
…used to run these streets in 2 feet of snow… Multiple Exposures Action. Playground of Heights and Depths. Multiple Exposures Action. Mid-winter climb cures all ills. Once: we climbed each challenge… …believed even fishes could rise from concrete… …remembered the space underneath our feet… …and the vast structures above, once ascended, that gave us the [...]

View from business class. Nothing cheers me up like watching the clouds on a long journey. So thats what I did. In between eating loads of healthy (seriously!!!) food and sipping Chardonnay.

Still emerging from our ‘Amazingly Tasty SeaFood of All kinds coma’… ..we found coffee at a cheery cafe. Celebrating the holidays with a posh passion fruit chocolate cake!
Walking down the street, we felt as though we were being watched. One Eyed Beauty lurking in an alley. New Couch Topper Paste Up! SHAG!! Yes, shag. We laughed like little kids. Nicest fish restaurant in St.Petersburg, with a starter compliments of the chef. Oysters and Snails-Dan flashes a grin [...]
My camera was left at home, so we practiced with Dan’s camera and had super results! We ate Chinese food until we burst and then Dan ordered a mountain of fried Carmel Bananas. There was much “Waddling” happening. Then the Extreme Lunging started…. Even the American’s got involved! Kill Fish Bar to start… Metro Acrobatics [...]
We went to the Saint-Petersburg Theatre of Musical Comedy to see Baroness Lili Why, yes, I am a saucy Mer-Man with Fabulous Hair and Posing Style. Odd flying, floating, fat babies on the handrails. Such a lovely theater! Remembering the good times Baku Style: Stout interspersed with double Vodka at 2 [...]
To Boldly Cook What No Man Has Cooked Before: Egg/mushroom omelet with fried tomato center. Aww, festive office decorations. SPIBA Christmas Party. The result of falling…after several hours and the following conversation with Dan: “Have you tried a Blue Lagoon? Nope. Have you tired a White Russian? No. Have you [...]
The day started with snow…but I still went for a 45 min run along the canals. Dodgy ‘Stach man was seen lurking in the shadows of the ‘Sunless St.Petersburg Winter Days’ right before he shaved it all off. Blurry Flurry. Or Nevskiy Prospect after a Vodka Session. Nothing beats St.Petersburg holiday lights! Kazan Cathedral + [...]
Souvenir shopping on Nevesky Prospect… Eж hats are so FRESH this season! Pretty christmas lights!
Last minute tickets to a hockey match landed us at a new metro stop, where we found a posh street dog outside the arena… …and a dodgy spandex covered fan posing up a storm. In between the 3rds we posed for photos and drank more beer! Introduction of the [...]
Muddy aftermath of a Saturday morning bike to class. Start of the protest on our street. After a 70 min run and a slushy bike ride, coffee and pastry at our favorite bakery. Christmas decorations are everywhere-a strong contrast to a day of protest and gray sky.
Today as I skipped home from work, I looked up and realized that for the first time in months, there was blue sky and sunshine. Sunshine, sunshine, it’s fine I feel it in my skin, warming up my mind, Sometimes you gotta give in to win, I love the days when it shines, whoa [...]
An evening at the Erarta Museum! Angles. As requested. Break for festive coffee, courtesy of orange umbrella drink topper. Details of abstraction. Little did you know, this is the first pictorial evidence of the ‘Screwing-in-the-Lightbulb’ dance ever recorded. This also happens to be Noah. Who knew the patriarchs had moves? The burden of Christianity. Rehab.
Finally, after weeks of my students telling me that all foreigners thought that Bears ran the streets of St.Petersburg-which I find odd since, it seems impossible to mistake a FooFooRat dog in a Pink Cozzie for a scary, hairy, bear- I found ’ARTBEAR’ lifting his paws, bumping to the latest rap-tastic beats. I also found [...]
After a day of vodka tasting, facial hair swooning and opera listening, today was rather slow, however due a series of events (both unfortunate and fortunate) I did manage to end up at a new metro stop just as a snow storm started… Snapped a bad snap of unknown column in middle of unpronounceable boulevard. [...]
The day of all things Russian started with stumbling upon… …a zombie (or other monster) bust, and a little man sporting wild facial hair perched on the walls of a kafeBar …where we ate bread sticks (crumbs) the staple of barKafes while sipping tea and waiting for the… Russian Vodka Museum! More wild [...]
Recovery from the баня with Frankincense from Dubai. Tasty 5pm meal of quiche, veggies, cheese, fresh bread, crisps, juice, coffee, liver pate!
Cookie dough so strong… …I could pick the bowl up by the fork! Oatmeal raisin cookies for the баня! Crawfish sculpture. Always play with your food. To the баня, posing in gnome hats.. …and Dan convinced an innocent bystander to try the ‘Toothpick trick’, when suddenly….. …баня boy appeared, busting wicked poses… and challenging Dan [...]
The day started with breakfast *yawn* Odd sign spottage. You wouldn’t know it, but an embassy friend carries the official ‘Oh Shit!’ phone, which happens to be the blue/green one. We went to Erarta Museum for a night of interactive art and speaking English (!!!) and found a guy crushed by Tetris. Catch a smile! [...]
Documenting 18 days in St.Petersburg in both Digital and LoMo (film will be posted later as processing labs here are alas, utterly dreadful) There might be themes, but if you have any suggestions such as: Bad Hair, Awkward Events, The Color Yellow etc. do share and I’ll take the challenge.

Vilnius, Lithuania. Riga, Latvia. Liepaja, Latvia. “Life is always going to be hooking you…When I really get hooked and I’m starting to get worked up… I might say to myself, “If I follow this, what will be the result? The habituation of strengthening this pattern. What will be the result? What will [...]
Leaping about St.Petes never looked so good Messing with the KGB? Lucky if they are alive on New Years Consider the past year of Russian plane disasters Last week we saw Da Vinci, this week its Dogs in Gas Masks A monthly Event
Dan was our photographer for the day, but we were running so fast, he almost didn’t catch us on camera Obviously we were confused thinking it was a ‘Jump 10K’ not run… ‘Flying Gazelle’ ninja move. That is how its done. Young Grasshopper(s) take note. Dan finally told us we [...]
Fela Market day, held at a faux beach in the center of a warehouse park, was a combination of exhibition, lecture, tasty beer, odd accessories and cool cats posing for snaps.
