The Stuff Dreams Are Made Of

Log homes are the stuff dreams are made of. Who wouldn't want to live in one? They symbolize ruggedness and the outdoor spirit - the very essence of the place we live in - and yet a lot of today's log homes have a definite air of sophistication about them.

One of Central Oregon's most glorious log homes has just recently been finished, and I had the chance to go out to the Crosswater Golf Community and photograph the mansion.

Take a look at the resulting images. Would *you* want to live here?

We Bow Our Heads In Grief

We bow our heads in grief and respect today to mourn the passing of one of photography's greatest icons: Henri Cartier-Bresson.

He proved that to be truly great, all's you really have to have is a good eye - he shot all his life with a small hand-held 35mm Leica. No fancy lighting, darkroom work or technology required. He's a hero to all of us who love his work.

For those unfamiliar with his imagery, check out some of the links below:
