I was getting a coffee in the Seattle warehouse suburb of Georgetown today. Saw that a new Via Tribunali pizza joint is opening down here. And, some fancy new apartments going up. I suspect people who bought property 5 years ago in this old warehouse district are going to be very happy as this neighborhood grows up to be Seattle’s next hip place to hang out.
I thought this postcard was funny…
Now this is one heck of a nice find. Get some ideas, then go do something interesting.
Spotted this Spyker at Park Place Motors in Bellevue WA. GT3 owned by my friend Brian Witz who was having some work done. The dutch Spyker is an aluminium hand built, mid-engined is powered by an Audi V8 engine (type S8). The $241,000 hand-built luxury creation is one of only 25 such cars in a limited series. The 400-horsepower vehicle has a top speed around 187 mph and 0-60 mph in 4.5 seconds. In real life the attention to detail that you see on this car is amazing. Everything from the exhaust tips to the brake and throttle peddle are meticulously machined into works of art.
Was with friends from Corbis at Seabrook Washington…a little coastal development up in the Northwest corner of the state.
Ok, I admit I love car racing. But not just any car racing. I’m referring to the fastest, most advanced cars on the planet. But this story just makes me sick. I can’t believe it’s true.
Oh. And if that’s not enough, read about his dad in more detail here.
Rainbow Series: I've begun work on some light-hearted images I've taken around Seattle which have been treated with the spectrum of the rainbow. I'll be adding to this set over the year.
Photo Paintings: It's fun to take some old photos from my collection and see if I can get them to look more like physical works of art. Sometimes it works and sometimes it does not but the process is quite fun.
Chernobyl Series: I've been working on some image collages with some old Chernobyl photos to try and pull some emotion out of some already spectacular images.
New Years 2007 in Hawaii: We spent New Years at Mauna Kea on the Big Island. Highly recommended to get some sun this time of year.
