happy SX-70 Day
Paphos, near Aphrodite’s Rock (Petra tou Romiou) earlier this month.
And of course the photographer climbed to the edge of the cliff to take pictures.
I stayed behind, safely, with my SX-70.
These are the results.

Portraits (Happy New Year, everyone!)
Happy New Year, friends.
Let’s hope it’s a good one, full of shiny new things, friends and family, and lots of good music and things to read.
I always like to start the new year with something new, so this year: portraits.
These are portraits of just a few of the wonderful people I spent time with in 2012.
[including Lee Jing-Jing, Ross Sutherland--seen here in his amazing Comedian Dies in the Middle of Joke, catch it if you get a chance, it's so much fun--my lovely new Santorini friends Lily, Myrsini and Oliver, poet Emma McGordon, my friend Rebecca, and of course Thodoris Tzalavras (I'm his official photographer's photographer)]
More portraits to come
Happy 2013!

Views from a Castle
It feels weird that it’s fall and I am in Cyprus and not away in school or rushing off to hand in a thesis.
At the same time September and October are perfect months to wander around the island, as the immense summer heat subsides and the tourists return to their wintery homelands.
There are so many places I haven’t even seen yet, or that I’d like to visit again.
These are some old pictures, taken with a medium format Mamiya and color slide film (remember those) from a previous trip to the castle of Kolossi.
Cyprus is full of treasures and nice locations. All you have to do to find them is go off your usual main city streets and just look around. And wander.

On the Road to Las Vegas
I don’t know what made me think of Vegas.
Maybe it’s the heatwave we’ve been having.
Or sending out a story that takes place somewhere between Las Vegas and Baker, CA.
Or a Hunter S. Thompson interview I read in the Paris Review.
Either way I found and scanned these pictures, taken with my old film Canon from the passenger seat somewhere outside L.A. circa 2001.

In search of rivers. And a reservoir.
We went in search of rivers.
One of us made his own pinhole camera. The other used a digital one.
It rained so much this year in Cyprus that reservoirs have become gathering places. And where there’s people, there are sandwich trucks. And ice-cream.
The men in the hats sold clay wares and other little things. They hung out in the sun and enjoyed the sunshine.
Where there are rivers, there are often ancient bridges.
There’s something really cool about walking on a medieval bridge.
And sometimes, if you know where to get off the highway, you can follow a river all the way to the sea.
