Maytag, originally uploaded by philberon.

I took this picture on Route 66 out of Santa Fe in 2002.
On a Canon G1.

This crazy maytag washer sitting in front of this crazy wall of some home long gone.

Say what you will about technology--that Maytag is in perfect shape. Poor little thing--sitting out in the rain, in the dessert, in the cold, in the scorching sun.

They don't make em like they used to.

The Four Corners

Ah, embarrassing photo of the week.
In 7th grade I was in a class with three of my best friends-Andy, Bobby, and Dan the Man.

I guess we were a bit of trouble cuz our teacher Mr. Dziedzic put us in the four corners of the classroom-so we wouldn't talk to each other.

Deep down he loved us He was one of the best teachers --good friends with us and very cool guy.

Still friends with these jokers. We all have a tad less hair now.

Lee Tonks fabulous photos


LEE_3762editedflk, originally uploaded by lotsofdpi.com.

I met Lee and his wife thru my class at the Julia Dean School of Photography in Aline Smithson's class.

Lee is certainly gifted -everyone knows that. Most known for his phenomenal photos of his daughter (placed in some rather unique circumstances).

I've been a fan of this body of work and it can be seen by clicking on
www.LeeTonksPhotography.com

I came across his Flickr page and had to share this pic I've never seen before. Remarkable.

For those who ask-and everyone does-- I met his daughter and she is the cutest, well adjusted, girl who has ever been asked to pose with dead stuffed animals and leap of cliffs--you have ever met.

Great job Lee!
