Hi.
This image is from eight days ago; my last day in Jersey, saying goodbye to my grandfather.
He is now in the hospital. So please keep him in your thoughts. It is very difficult for me to be on the other side of the country during this time.
Aside from having my grandfather in the back of my mind, my California tour has been produc...

This shot was entitled, "Cliche," by Amr.
Can you guess why?
This is the same location we are traveling to today, but will not be part of the series to be shown at The Westons.
This was the last shoot of the day. My energy had suddenly taken a significant nose dive, and we had simultaneously lost the light. I was on my lady holi...

I made it to California, and my luggage made it too, finally!
Today, I am shooting with Amr and Craig in this beautiful location, seen above.
Amr has put together a gorgeous thematic series of these nudes, both of myself and Sekaa, which he will show at this weekend's Weston Workshop at Wildcat Hill.
Last night, I wa...

Also going live tonight, images and behind the scenes from my scouting trip to Moab.
Day after tomorrow, I am flying to California to begin my month long tour, which ultimately has me ending up in Moab, for The Desert Adve...

This morning, Steven Solheim visited me at my little house, and in between very thorough discussions about life, language, philosophy, folk music and literature, we made some lovely images in the natural light.
It was a delight to collaborate and share with another deep thinking human.
Thank you so much for coming!

Hello all;
So, I have been trying to upload 3 posts to Tumblr for the last 4 days, and I simply cannot get them to load. I have this issue far too often, and especially while I'm in Moab, (sub-optimal wifi signal) but I don't know a better alternative. Open to suggestions, please!
I am so sorry that I haven't been ...

As of today, I have officially finished writing and revising the literature for my third book;
Tuolumne Nudes: Musings of a Muse.
This book is comprised of 32 pages, and includes images photographed by Allyn Saroyan during a 5 day photographic trip to Tuolumne Meadows, and four powerful poems, all inspired in...

The other night
I dreamt a dream
I’d lost my oars
Into the stream.
The stream I’d trained
To placid daydream
Had come un-tame
To rapids raging
For I had, myself, deceived
Anchored to what I felt I needed
I knew too well, I should have heeded
Head turnt towards w...

A candid shot by Photosensualis during our photo inspired adventures in northern Florida.
Fun fact; kayaking is among my favorite activities.

My sincerest apologies for going dark.
I was in Mexico for five days, and for an 'all-inclusive resort,' I certainly did not expect the wifi (available for an additional charge) to be basically non existent.
But if I'm being honest, it was an added luxury not to have a working cellphone.
This was the first trip in a long time that did...

Counting the buttons
A white collared shirt
Later to remark upon it
Thick, wet red clay
Caught through the window
By soft smiling eyes
Innocently navigating
She climbs away.
So gently, large hands maneuver
Deliberate, quiet movements
Laden with intent, no electron wasted
The soul informs...

As I work on 'The Notion of Home,' another aside;
Wading in a Woodstock waterfall with my beautiful friend, Nala. Shot 3-4 years ago by Photosensualis. This was such a warm and wonderful day (aside from Nala lying down in stinging nettle). Whenever Nala and I are together, there is an enormous amount of giggling going on.

[The Purge; Precursor to ‘A Notion of Home’]
An intense, personal poem I wrote while purging
during my aforementioned Ayurvedic cleanse.
Part one can be found on the $5+ blog.

While I continue to compose 'A Notion of Home,' here is a brief and fleeting daydream of a sunny moment in the eye of a pretty treacherous hurricane, about 1.5 years ago along the Florida gulf.
Looking forward to returning here to do some more work with Photosensualis in just about two weeks.
It has been a cold winter.

2018-02-06 21:20:55 +0000 UTC View PostFor select patrons, I am extending this invitation.
Until Monday, I will answer any questions you have.
They can be as broad or as specific as you like. You can even refer to particular passages in my writing, or specific images.
Not that I'm really worried about this in this forum, but just for the record, please do not ask me ...
