FLYING WEDGE

Dream big all you kids in bands, all kinds of things are possible... Is it just me, or is this the best the Stones ever looked...

FATHER+SON

Maybe it is because I am the father of three boys, but these shots together really makes me wonder what could have been...

COOL CHICK

The fabulous miss Holiday getting to the next gig... I wonder who's horn she's holding...

UPDATE... a couple of nice people got ahold of me to point out this is not a young Billie Holiday in this photo, that actually the photo is of Mrs. Donald Byrd... Instead of changing the text, I am just going to add this update on to it, showing that everything is a fluid mix of dialog... I must say, I went through several online image databases to make sure it was truly Miss Holiday, and sure enough, there she was... I questioned her looks when comparing to later photos, but chalked the comparisons up to her life of drug use... You can be sure I would be a hack journalist... Anyhoots, I love the vibe of this photo, and you can bet the horn is her old mans...

YOUTHS

Teach them well...

MOTIVATION

Now this could sway one to discover the art of tandem kite surfing...

BACK ON TRACK?

What's up crew... It has been a month since I last put something up on this here blog zone... I have been really focused on my studio and all that goes on in it... Some time away has been nice, but duty calls and I will refocus on this venue (unless the surf gets good)... SS

LAGGING

Okay, I must say I have been lagging on the blog front lately... Lots going on, will try to get back on track... SS

FEELING IT

This whole vibe is looking pretty good right about now... Sign me up... SS

BATTER UP

ROAD TRIP

Simple and clean...

BACK HOME

Santa Barbara is finally beautiful, after a misty summer... Enjoy it this Labor Day...

STPL

Had a couple of good dinners with Jeff while in Tokyo last week... This was our first time to cross paths, and he has a good vibe... And no, that is not some new style of ascot, just a massive bib/apron situation we had to wear for the amazing Korean sauce that was flying... Thanks again to HF for some unreal meals... SS

NBHD

Met Shin-san in his Tokyo shop for the first time... Dude sure does a good job with his business, biggest respect for pulling it off with flavor... I know, I know, the sunglasses inside are just ridiculous, but you should have seen how bad I looked in the other shot with them off!.. SS

HF

I have had a ball in Tokyo this week, a couple of great dinners with Hiroshi and friends... I want to thank everyone for a great stay in one of my favorite places... You can tell by this shot my camera skills are not the sharpest after a belly full of Korean BBQ... SS

TOKYO

Rolled into Tokyo last night... The heat is a hot mess, the streets are steaming, getting ready for some mass humanity moments... I will try to keep you posted... SS

COOL

I would love this in four wheel drive...

SUN'S OUT

Finally the sun has come out in my neck of the woods, please tell me the endless drizzle of this summer is over...
