The Clouds Of Sunday Morning


No sadness
Can penetrate my spot
Calm temperature
Feeling rise as if they are hot
Safe and strong I’m not alone
Though no faces are those I know
Floating with the clouds
Weightless thoughts
Bring so many boundless dreams
For in life nothing is
Ever as it truly seems
Unless your with the clouds.

FIRE! @ 200 Wellesley!


Happening right now...as I post this. Six Alarm Fire on floor 24 of 200 Wellesley just one block from me, 27 trucks and well over 100 fire fighters trying to keep this from spreading! Four residents with inhalation as well as some of the fire fighters... No word of anything worse ... As you can see the fire fighters are on the roof of the building..and some residence have been asked to stay in their units even though they are really quite close... You can see them on their balconies in some of the shots! Something like this really makes you think when you live in a high rise!






Images were shot from the roof of my building..29th floor.

Seal 6: Commitment


If you know me well you know I wont be able to sleep until this album comes out on Tuesday September 28th... Seal 6 Commitment.... Here is the link to the streaming versions of all the songs! SEAL6 Very reminiscent of his second album in terms of the lush production values and harmonies.... The Lyrics are already making me crazy in such a good way!

TUNDE!

Tunde Baiyewu is the Nigerian born former lead singer of the Lighthouse Family, a band of soul music , formed in 1994 that made tremendously popular music in Britain, selling millions of albums and writing music for U2. This is one of the tracks from his first solo album... I love the simple romantic soul sound that comes from all of his music. I think for many of us Tunde also represents music we can sing along to with out being out of key!

Creating The Look Of The BlackCat Experience 2010!

I love working for DJ BlackCat, he pushes the envelope creatively and my photoshop skills endlessly. For his birthday bash coming up on October 10th at the Barn he arranged for the single biggest shoot I have ever been on... An endless parade of models and DJ's who will all be spinning that night came in one after another in both all white and all black outfits! Almost 6 hours long the shoot resulted in the various poster and web banners you see here! Needless to say it was a ton of fun. The background is straight out of the movie The Matrix! This also marks the first folding flyer we have ever attempted, helping to create the effect of entering through just a single entry door into the party! Creating these has been an awesome experience which is second only to actually going to the annual BlackCat Experience... Guarantee this party will not disappoint! If your in the Toronto Area make sure you attend!

The World of Markus Bollingmo

The photographers name Name is Markus Bollingmo, and he is a Norwegian currently living in Paris. I came across one of his images on a friends site the other day and I was quickly able to link it back to his website. Along with his work in the fashion world Marcus has done an awesome job of capturing the gay post tweener (late teens early twenties) crowd of europe and other far off places like Japan (some of these images are featured in this post). What I found most interesting when I went through his images was the subtle little things in life that we see and take for granted, reflections in glass, light entering an empty room the structural nuances of a building, bridge or a tree. When you see these images you may find a new apreciation for these moments. This also translates to his images of people. Some time fun, often quite and reflective moments.
You can check out his work on his site: Here
