My kids and the places we explore.
Water, canoes, rafting, camping, woods, hunting and fishing.
Night.
All Images are by me.
Most are works-in-progress... first drafts. This is a sort of cross-section of my life. A collection of artwork and snapshot from the day-to-day activity.

coffee over osage scrap.
I spent last weekend with a few friends at the cabin making self bows out of various woods. We established early the first morning that there is a coffee-all-day policy. Coffee over hickory, coffee over yew,… all good, but coffee over osage in the middle of Nowhere, Montana was my favorite.

Video with 19 notes
Here’s a short video about James Behring’s knife making process. I shot the video and Dustin Millard did the editing. It’s a project we only had a week to work on, but I think it came together well enough. I’ve never shot video and it was pretty fun! I think there could be a future for this video stuff….

James Behring cutting copper for a knife hilt.
It’s been a long time since I’ve had a good macro set-up. I had tubes and extenders for my Nikon film rig, but nothing since going to Canon.
This Canon 100mm Macro IS USM is good for everything from portraits to 1:1 macro, has images stabilization, and from what I can tell so far, is pretty wicked sharp. I’ve only had it a day though.
