Ballard Outlaws

Some guys hanging out in Ballard one afternoon that I just happened to be there. I forget exactly what we talked about, but I feel like it had something to do with living an outlaw lifestyle. They were pretty bad ass.

Olympic Peninsula Kids

A few kids on the side of the road help their mother sell wood. A natural extrovert, this little girl was more than happy to pose for a few photos.

PAC NW babe!

Seattle rocks it!!!

With really small (or no) pants. Whenever possible. Taken after the Dyke March, Pride Weekend 2009.

Niños de Zumbahua (Ecuador)

Note the almost heavy metal hand thing going on on the left. He was trying!

Palio

This image was taken during a practice run of the annual medieval horse race Il Palio di Siena. The race is a competition between the city's 17 contrades, resulting with the winner walking away with bragging rights and an obligation to party and chant around the city banging drums and causing a general ruckus. Now that is stuff I can get down with!

Wilson

We met Wilson on the street outside the corner store next to the rock show on a sunday afternoon, and pretty soon ended up in his office where he modeled his most fabulous lucha libre get up! It's amazing what a few cerveza's on the street corner will lead you in to.

Show Me Your Roosters

These images are from a cock fight I went to in Medellín over the summer of 2008. Up in the hills of the city sat this ring in the back of a possibly sketchy bar. A few dollars at the door got you all night entertainment. As bottles of Aguardiente flowed, bets were hedged on chickens lives and I was caught up in the fun of it all. I gambled on a life or two and came away even.

Tucky

Another day in Kentucky. I like those kind of days.

Up in tha casino!!

I met this guy in the Poulsbo casino after some of my friends got hitched this past September. He was pretty awesome. And FYI, never, EVER drink liquor that comes from a soda gun. It will NOT get you drunk. Bottles only friends!
