I am going though some back up image disks and thought I might share a few pics.

Pic #1: Proof that I was a squidly! 1991
#2 Me on stage with "Bread and Water" in Perth Australia, Grosvenor Hotel bar. 1996
#3 I am guessing it was '76-'77?
#4 Visiting Lake Tahoe '95
#5 My '61 bus '88

I just found a pretty funny shot of me. I had been growing the goatee for a while and decided to play with it as I was shaving it off. I left it like this for a few days.


The second shot in my '74 bug.

How about some terrible scans and bad self portraits?

I thought I might update this thread. I just got my studio strobes this afternoon. The wife was playing with them and I got in the way.

A self-portrait with my LensBaby.

For those that don't know, in order to focus the LensBaby, you push or pull on the lens front to focus. This makes it REALLY tough to shoot a self portrait! I think I did pretty well though. (This photo was not manipulated or cropped, just resized for the Org.)

If you didn't already know, I graduated with my Associates of Arts & Sciences on sunday. I was pleasantly surprised when I found a pic of me taken by the local newspaper. (That's me adjusting my tassel in the sun) It wasn't published in the paper, just the photo's section of the website.

How about a self portrait? Taken in Astoria, WA...July 6, 2006.

I just got a new Softbox for my studio, and the wife was trying it out on me. This was taken a few minutes ago, so it's the most up to date shot of me.

[jdesigns]

The wife shot this tonight just after I found out that my new Nikon D2x shoots B&W pics.

[jdesigns]

Me shooting my latest wedding.

Not the most flattering shot of me though.

[jdesigns]

How about another not so flattering shot of me?

This was at the Top of the Astoria Column in Astoria, OR today. The mighty Columbia River on the right of the pic.

The latest "self portrait" shows my glasses a bit better.

In preparation for shooting a wedding tomorrow, I finally got the new battery pack out for my studio strobes and set up in the backyard. So, with a lack of suitable models around, I shot myself. (And another shot to show the strobes outside.)


Cheese!

Here's the latest shots of me. These are NOT self portraits. They were taken at KISW's "Pain in the Grass" concert.

The first pic was shot by Jim McJunkins. That's me with the camera in the bottom center.

The second pic was taken by Mike Savoia.

[jdesigns]

Can you stand to see another of my Pain in the Grass shots? This one is pretty funny!

The guy in the lower left of the frame is Mike Savoia, that took one of the pics above.

[jdesigns]

Taken tonight as we were setting up the studio lights to a senior portrait session tomorrow.

Another by Island Jenn

This one taken while I was shooting KISW's Holiday Hangover Ball. This was taken as Top Heavy Crush was performing. (I'm the one that is NOT on stage!)

[jdesigns]

How about a shot from 1991?

[jdesigns]

My Basses and guitar. (Taken in the condo a few years ago)

[jdesigns]

#1. Me at work in one of my previous careers. Taken in the electronics bay of a 737-400 for an international air carrier.

#2. My guitars from about 6 years ago. The only one I still have is the 6 string bass (center)

[jdesigns]

Me at the local college waiting for a student being used for a marketing campaign. Taken 10 days ago.

This was in the theater, and ALL the lights were on, not just my strobes!
