Paul assassinated an ’80s Lincoln for us last spring at the workshop.  Gold- and red-set Protomachine flashlight.

More of the wonderful aviation relics laying around at Eagle Field. This morning I announced a NEW night photography and light painting workshop at Eagle field to my e-mail list (yes, it’s a new location for Joe Reifer and I).  Six hours later . . . it’s already full  . . . just from this list.  I’m […]

Lockheed Harpoon, undergoing slow restoration at Eagle Field.  132-second exposure.  Full moon, sodium-vapor light, indirect purple and red light, bounced off the tarmac.
