Visited the Big M for a sweltering, (almost) all-nighter in August, braving giant swarms of blood-thirsty mosquitoes and ridiculously large and easily irritated spiders, ready for any opportunity to bury their fangs in your neck. Even with coating myself in deet every hour or so, I left covered with painful welts . . . but […]

Static display inside the totally dark hangar at Eagle Field.  There was a hole in the fuselage behind her, so I was able to get red light glowing up from behind her.  I also used warm and cool white light to balance the rest of the scene.  Protomachine flashlight.

467-seconds under the full moon at Paul’s Junkyard last April.  This Navy bus was rendered in the pit just days after I shot it.

One of the old barracks buildings at Eagle Field. I don’t think it’s been painted since 1942. Purple, red and lime Protomachine light, skimmed from numerous directions, in total darkness.

Inside the Dolphin’s Tail.  Smelled funny in here . . .  Protomachine flashlight set to 2 shades of green and red.  59-second exposure.

Parts were spread all over.  Here’s the back half of the jet trainer, floating in space.  Lit with the Protomachine flashlight during a 65-second exposure in total darkness.

Inside the 40′ high spillway beneath a dam, this is where the water splits . . . Actually, it’s the split air induction tunnels inside a disassembled Aero L29 Delphin jet trainer, and it’s only a foot tall.  This is looking forward, inside the center of the fuselage, just ahead of the engine.  Shot in […]

Cockpit of the Aero L-29 Delphin undergoing restoration at Eagle Field.  The tripod was set at full extension and I was lighting from ladders on both sides of the plane to get this shot.  Lit with the Protomachine flashlight in total darkness.

An Aero L29 Delphin, a 1960s Czech Military jet trainer, undergoing restoration in the hangar at Eagle Field.  This airframe was in a million pieces, spread out all over the hangar floor.  Since March, when I shot this, it’s been reassembled and is almost complete.  The owner insists he’s going to fly it when it’s […]
