10am Update: Trees n’ feelings.
Jean Tansey stands amid a canopy of trees lining Sycamore Lane she maintains for the Cedacroft community. Her work has impressed the Baltimore Rec and Parks so much that they are using her program as a model.
When I was an intern I was a more anit-portrait than I am today. In fact I’m decidedly pro-portrait [...]
10am Update: The Lizard Guy
“This house is like Jerassic Park North,” kids Gordon Hyssong, a 65 year old self-proclaimed herpetologist who shares his Parkville home with almost 40 reptiles, a fish tank full of hissing cockroaches and an ornery parrot names Caesar.
This guy was intense! I met him back in November, 2004, while I was an intern at the [...]
10am Update: I heart snow.
This is from December, 2008. Jess drew the heart, and our upstairs neighbor’s dog, Josh, was looking to make some yellow snow.
I just got my new full-frame D700 and I was making as many night photos as possible. The drawback — which doesn’t really bother me in this image — is that all my wide [...]
Spro Down!

10am Update: Ray Lewis for The Sporting News
Back in October, 2009, I got the opportunity to photograph one of the greatest defensive players ever, the
10am Update: Ceiling Leak
Dripping water from my kitchen ceiling leak. The water is shot against an underexposed fluorescent light. This was made in my old house in SoWeBo, Baltimore, Maryland May 11, 2006.
Charlie’s Going Away Party

Charlie Shoemaker is leaving for Africa later this week. So, he threw a party — and, possibly drank
10am Update: Smoking from a Sprite Bottle
So… this is our China Bus Driver. He’s smoking “something” out of a Sprite bottle. Most of us on the bus think it’s pot. This other modern dancer we met at the bus stop, Andrea, worried it was opium. Maybe this guy just likes the way Sprite makes his tobacco taste. right? Well, we [...]
“…more like an Anti-Colts Bar.”
The Hon Bar crowd erupts while watching a 4th quarter Saints interception during the Super Bowl Sunday, February 7, 2010. “It’s not really a Saints Bar …more like an anti-Colts bar,” says Gary Eptsteitn, wearing glasses. He is accompanied by Lisa Caughey, immediate foreground, and Becky Littlefield, far right, all from Hampden.

paw prints from three snows ago
“Neighbor Cats” paw prints, Thursday, December 31, 2009.
As a rule I don’t like cats. …mostly because they make it hard for me to breathe.
Admittedly, I enjoy watching cats from a far. And my favorite kind of cat is ferrel. They keep the mice away. We’ve got a family of 4-6 cats living in our alley [...]
Baltimore Snow
Snow in the city Friday night, February 5, 2010. I shot this waiting for a parking garage elevator.
10am Update: Stormtrooper
This is what I said: ”Oh f’n my God! — Nick! I’ll have to call you back. There’s a Storm Trooper walking down the Avenue.”
As always, this is my 10am update — good stuff from my archives.
ActionSampler
Whoa! it’s been a while since I’ve used film.
There’s a frozen bag of old C-41 in my freezer. It’s all expired and it’s been in and out of the freezer so often, I question it’s consistency.
So, I figure the best thing to do with those rolls is to make photos that don’t matter.
And what better [...]
Neighbor Cats
We have these ferrel cats that live in our alley. I’m allergic to cats, and because of that I’ve made up a rule: I don’t like them.
…but I make an exception with these guys. They keep the rats away and they don’t rub on me. What’s not to like? There’ll be more photos of these [...]
The Baltimore trash stack.
(Monday November 18, 2008) The light was bouncing all over the place today. Angry grey clouds encroached on the blue skies, flipping and directing the sun’s rays. gorgeous!
