Here are some photos I took using the View-Master Personal camera. I took these on a road trip across the western half of the U.S. that I went on in the summer of 2008. I managed to convert the images to digital format by photographing them through a loupe with a digital camera, then manipulating them in photoshop. I tell ya. The fuji digital camera is a lot easier. I spent way too much time doing that.

These dinosaurs are in Rapid City South Dakota, on the peak of a big hill in the middle of town, aptly named Dinosaur Park. I remember stopping here when I was a kid in the early 80’s and had to go back. They aren’t scientifically accurate, but that’s sorta besides the point.

My band Paper Fleet played a show last saturday and Bruar Falls in Brooklyn, and I took some pictures of the bands we played with. I didn’t take any pictures of myself while I was playing.

First up was Jenny and the Holzers, singing songs that compel you to google their titles.

Then we played. Like I said. I didn’t take pictures of us.

Then Hollows played. They’re from Chicago. They were rad. Go listen to them on myspace, check them out live if you can and buy their record. I did. It rocks.

Lastly was Loneliest Monk. I will be honest. When I heard they were a duo featuring cello, I wasn’t expecting to stay awake for long, but they really won everyone over with their uptempo dynamic sound. Some said they were great except the drummer’s mask. Some said the mask was the best part. I will stay neutral on the subject of the mask and let you decide for yourself.

Here’s my first couple pics. The red/green looking pictures are best viewed with red and green glasses. If you dont have those around you can view the double picture by crossing your eyes.

This is a picture of the band Borrowed Beams of Light, playing at a pool hall in Richmond Virginia.
