In early December I was lucky enough to get out to San Francisco to shoot the Northface Endurance Challenge championship 50mile race in the headlands of Marin. It was a beautiful day for a race (not that you can tell from these pre-dawn images) and, as anyone who has spent any time in this part of the country will know, a breathtaking landscape through which to run. More images to come shortly, but first a few from the starting area prior to and just after the gun.

The West Fjords of Iceland are dotted with small fishing towns. Yet these towns seem to do very little actual fishing since the mid seventies when a quota system was enacted as a response to an overfishing crisis. While it has been successful in allowing the population of herring around Iceland to rebound, it has had other effects as well. A fisherman stepping off a small private boat in the village of Þingeyri said this year he had met his quota in a mere 5 days. Consequently, there is a lot of fishing equipment lying around and it is surprisingly difficult to get fresh fish in any of these towns (unless of coarse you have a boat and do it yourself). The law is apparently not strict about fishing for personal consumption.
Below are a couple of images of all this gear in the harbors of some of these towns with more to follow in the next few days.

While waiting for hurricane Irene to pass, I thought it might be nice to put up a few new images. Especially since they suggest the possibility of terrible weather, but without actually seeing any of it.

A few quick images from a trip to Oregon earlier in the summer. On location for Land’s End at Mt. Hood where there’s nothing like escaping the heat of New York and finding snow in June.
