September Desktop Wallpaper

September’s almost here and there are changes afoot. The website’s completely new and with those changes I wanted to give you something new for your desktop, something I’ve not shown anyone. So I revisited my images from the trip I took with Jessie, my Land Rover, last year. Oh those were fun times. You know, back when they were still letting me into the country to photograph and explore. Anyways, I found this one from Pacific City, one of my favorite spots to eat, drink a good beer, and make photographs. Forget Cannon Beach, give me Pacific City any day. I remember looking over the edge and thinking how much it would suck to fall over… This, by the way, is why I re-visit images for another edit once in a while. Somehow this image escaped my notice the first and second (and third?) time around. I’m glad I gave it another chance. I’ll do a post about the digital darkroom work on this one tomorrow.
As for the website, we’ve tried to create something that’s easy for everyone and plays nicely with mobile platforms. We’ll be tweaking bits and pieces as the days move along, but I hope you’ll take a few moments to poke around.
Click the image above to download a 2560 x 1600 version of this image for your desktop. Enjoy!
Huge thanks and props to Dave Seeram for the hard work on the re-design and functionality of this site. I’m grateful, DS, thank you!

Both interviews touch on similar themes and gave me a chance to talk about my accident, the brevity of life, and other topics [...]
Introducing Dave Delnea
I wanted to introduce you to Dave Delnea this morning. On Friday we’re releasing his eBook, Below The Horizon, and it seemed only right that you meet him first.

State Of The Blog Address
On Thursday the 22nd I attended a conference called Creative Mix Vancouver. It was the brainchild of my manager, Corwin Hiebert, and it was incredibly inspiring to me to see a room packed with creatives from an incredible cross-section of disciplines. We had writers and publishers, ad executives and musicians, video-game creators, film-makers, photographers, and [...]
Approaching Giants
Tet celebrations in Sapa, Vietnam. I cropped this one to go with the “giants” theme, you know, Jack and The Beanstalk kind of stuff. Now I’m not sure which version I like better, the square crop or the original. EXIF: Canon 5D, 125mm, 1/1600 @ f/4.o, ISO 400. First, thanks to everyone who participated in [...]
